Obituary.

RUBY VALLEY, New. March 6, '95.
EDITOR INDEPENDENT:-Once again
has the shadow and gloom of death
settled upon our little community.
A pure and Christ like soul has been
taken from our midst. One Of Gods
noblest servants has crossed the dark
and swiftly flowing river to bright
and beautiful homo beyond. Sur
rounded by all that loving hands
could give, with everything that could
make her last moments on earth full
Of peace and comfort, Mrs. William
Myers passed away at her residence
in this valley at half-past four o'clock
Wednesday morning March 6, 1885.
- She was sitting at che table enjoy
ing her evening meal when death
stole In with silent tread and struck
the fatal blow. With the bright light
In her eye and the bloom of health
upon her cheek, she passed in one
short moment to the pallor and weak
ness OF death. Loving arms were
soon about her and she was quickly
carried to the couch from which she
was destined never to arise. A mes
senger was dispatched for a physi
clan. DR.. Mcdowell soon arrived
but could give no hope of her ulti-
mate recovery. He pronounced it a
paralytic stroke and gave medicine
accordingly, greatly easing her last
moments from suffering and pain.
He had met foe whom medicine
could not conquer.
The deceased was born in Herki-
mer, New York, May 81, 1852. At
the early age of seventeen she became
the happy bride of William Myers
and journeyed with him to his home
on what was then a wild frontier.
For twenty five years she led a noble
and useful life, rearing three bright
and amiable daughters who are the
support and comfort of their grief
stricken father in this his hour of
trial and deep suffering.
Far away in an eastern city is an
aged couple awaiting with trembling
anxiety the last sad news of their be-
loved daughters fate. May it not
cause their old gray hairs to go down
in sorrow tothe grave! May they not
forget that beyond the grave is life
everlasting and no partings there!
The sympathy of the entire CON-
munity is extended to the bereaved
family and relatives. Those who
knew the deceased loved and respect.
ed her. With kindly ways and a
cheerful disposition, she won all
alike, and her untimely death is deep
ly regretted by her many friends
throughout the State.
The Lord hath sent his messenger
To guide his beloved through
The gates that lead to city
Beyond our mortal view.
