Our community is saddened by the death
of Mrs. Ross C.Kinsley, which occurred on
New Years day. The funeral was held
at the Congregational church, at noon
last Monday; 1t was filed TO overflow
ing with mourning and sympathizing
friends, which gave evidence OF the esteem
in which the deceased was held, both at
home and i'm surrounding towns. The
services were conducted by Rev. N. &.
Saunders, of Johnson, who was the ofiici-
ating clergyman at the time of her mar
rage TO Mr.. Kinsley two years ago last
Christmas. Amy M. Kinsley, nee CHINA
mon, was the daughter OF Mrs. j. +.
Knowles of Eden, and was born i'm Hyde
Park, VT, Dec. % 1871. Being thrown on
her own resources at the age OF twelve, she
supported herself by teaching and house
work until her marriage. IL has been said
of her that she always thought of Others
first, self afterward, and II was 90 this
fact, in a great measure. her early death
was due. She was married TO Ross q.
Kinsley, Dec. %, 1894. Ever since their
marriage she has been i'm poor health and
despite the best of care and medical at
tendance, gradually declined and passed
away just two years TO a day from the
time she came here, bride. Although so
short time among us she endeared her
self, by her kindly ways and gentle dis
position, to all with whom she came Ia
contact. The sympathy OF the whole
community is extended TO the bereaved
husband and relatives.
