Death of Miss Anna Byerly.

A telegram directed to Col. Byerly was re-
ceived yesterday announcing the death of
his sister Anna, at st. Mary's Retreat, at
Dearborn. where she has been the past nine
years. The telegram was forwarded to the
Colonel who was in Detroit. He immedi-
ately went to Dearborn and later wired his
family that he should arrive in Owosso with
her remains at $3.50 this afternoon.
The deceased was 40 years old and a
daughter of the late A. ii. and Jane Byerly,
and we'll known to the older citizens. The
telegram announcing her death gave no par
ticulars, but the state of her health for some
time had been such that the announcement
of her death occasioned little surprise.
The funeral will be held at the residence
of Col. Byerly on west Oliver street at 1880
a. M. tomorrow, Rev. Sherwood Roosevelt,
officiating.

The Dorcas Home.

II there is any one institution in Owosso,
more deserving Of the sympathy and con-
tributions OF our citizens, than any other, it
is the Dorcas Home, located now at 6O4
Pine street, and of which Mrs. M. c. Dawes
is president. And, If one can Judge by its
present prosperous condition, its interests
are far from being neglected by our citizens.
AT the adjourned meeting of the board of
managers, held at Mrs. Il. NJ. Wiley's on
Monday evening it was decided to purchase
a lot on Abbott street, adjoining the one
given them last summer by Ex-Mayor
Dawes, and prepare for building thereon
the coming year. The deeds for both lots
are now in the possession of the society.
They have already, in subscriptions and
cash several hundred dollars on hand, and
additional members to the soliciting COM
mttee will soon be appointed. The names
of more than 900 persons appear on the list
of donors to the Home, during the last
month. The collection at the Thanksglv-
ing church services was $13O1. They are
out of debt and with quits we'll filled
larder. and are. greatly encouraged at the
outlook. There are ten children at the
home. Before another winter is upon them
they expect to be in a home of their own.
There is a fine opportunity just now for
some generous person to give them thous.
and or so towards this project.
