Miss Helen Kimball died on Thurs
day morning last, after an illness Of
many months, during which time she
has been an intense sufferer. At first
her ailment seemed to be sciatica, but
later other troubles set in and baff1ed
the skill Of physicians. Miss Kimball
was born in Glover and has long resid-
ed in this town. She was a lady Of
more than ordinary intelligence and
ability, the daughter of Dana Kimball,
who died thirty odd years ago. Miss
Kimoall received a good education
and was successful teacher for some
years. Of late she has been an eff
cient clerk in the o. d. Owen store.
She has always been deeply interest
ed in the welfare Of the citizens of the
town, especially the older class, whom
she knew in her childhood. She has
been an honored member of the Cong.
church and has been a good and con-
sistent worker and helper. She lived
to bury all the members of her own
family, except one sister, Mrs. Susan
Brown. She will add another to the
long and rapidly increasing list of
names of the Kimball families that
are written on the stones and monu-
ments of the cemetery. In her death
many have lost a true friend and
many will miss her in the spheres Of
her usefulness. Her funeral was held
at the Cong church Sunday afternoon,
Rev. Mr.. Swain, pastor, officiating.
Relatives were present from New
