 Mrs. Emily Francis Carey died in Worcester last Thursday after a short sickness at the home of her sister, Mrs. Cleo. W. Harlow, at the age of 70 years and 10 months. She had spent the winter pleasantly with her brother J. Duam Par sons in Springfield. Mrs. Carey, who was the daughter of Rufus and Chloe Parsons, was born in Wilmington, where about fifty years ago she married Theodore C.Carey, with whom she lived forty-eight years. They lived in Westford many years, and attended the church where she took an important part in the singing and was one of the leaders in the activities of the place. Many years ago she went to Worcester where she has since lived, respected by all who knew her. Her funeral was attended last Sunday by the pastor of Main-st. Baptist church of Worcester which she attended, and she was buried beside her husband in Shrews- bury. She united with the Baptist church many friends.
