OBITU AIRY.


Died in Bluehill, May 3, 1895, Nesta E.,
wife of Joseph Steele, and only daughter
of the late Josiah and Sarah Clay, aged
about forty-nine years. The deceased
had always been faithful and affection
ate wife and mother, a good and oblig-
ing neighbor and kind friend.
Left at the early age of twelve years
fatherless, with the care and support of
an invalid mother depending on her; she
never faltered nor wavered, but took up
her burden bravely, and for more than
twenty years she cheerfully and loving
ly cared for her dear one until death re-
lieved the sufferer.
The deceased had been twice married
but having no children who lived, just
before her first husbands death she
adopted an infant, who but for her low
ing kindness would never have known a
