Mrs. Eunice Stalker, daughter of Mr..
Mrs. Daniel Stalker, died at the home
of her parents in Rainsboro, Aug. 7th,
1893, aged 26 yrs, months and IL days.
Her life was short but long enough to
build character of force and beauty
that has made its impress for good upon
those with whom she has been associ-
ated. She was blessed with an amiable
disposition, ever kind and considerate to
all, and she never seemed happier than
when practicing self denial or taxing
her energies to bring sunshine to the
hearts or tighten the burdens of others.
She was attectionate and dutitul to her
parents and gentle and kind to her |
brothers and sisters. During her brief |
residence here, she had won the admi. |
re ton OF all who were favored with her
and since her sudden re-
moval we hear words OF commendation
on every hand, recounting the loveable
traits OF character as shown in her inter-
course with society. Her death was un
expected and its real cause may never
be known, as she expired so soon after
The arrival of the physician as to give no
lime to properly diagnose the case. For
months past she has suffered at times
rom nervous prostration, but was as
we'll as usual on Monday and spent the
lay in helpful service, and seemed
cheerful and happy. She retired about
p. NJ, after kissing her little sister,
bidding her mother an affectioate good
light, as was her custom. In a short
ime she was taken seriously i'll, and in
ess than one short hour was dead.
Mr.. and Mrs. Daniel Stalker wish to
indy thank their neighbors and friends
or their sympathy, presence, and help
uring their recen: bereavement.
