Jacob Williams, aged so years
Once cit becomes the sor-
rowful duty of the EXAMINER to
chronicle the death of a loving
wife, fond mother and an esti-
mable lady, in the person of Mrs.
Jacob Williams.
She had been sufferer for
months from cancer in the breast.
Last year an operation was per-
formed on her in Salt Lake in the
hope that this ailment might be
arrested in its progress, but it
proved Intellectual. Recently she
grew rapidly worse and another
trip was made to Salt Lake, but
the physicians there advised her
that nothing could be done for her
relief. She was barely able to be
brought home arriving here in the
early part of last week. Saturday
death came to relieve the mortal
body of its Affections. All of the
members Of her family were pre-
sent at the last moment.
The deceased was born in West
Virginia so years ago and has
lived in Montpelier about fifteen
years.
Mrs. Williams was indeed a most
lovable woman, her gentleness and
kindly disposition won for her the
love and admiration Of alt. She
was devoted wife, a kind and
considerate mother and a true
friend.
The deep sorrow into which her
husband and seven children have
been plunged is shared by hosts Of
friends throughout this section.
The sympathy of the entire COM
munity is with them in their sad
hour.
The funeral took place from the
Latter Day Saints church Monday,
of which faith she was an earnest
believer and a devoted worker. A
long procession of carriages Of
friends followed the remains to
their last resting place.

The action of the board of county
commissioners in refusing to pay
the expenses incurred in the quar-
antine of the house of Mr.. Cozzens
on account of scarlet fever was we
think serious mistake. The law
ProFides that the expense Of quar-
shtiasire aAelI ~ barn By the
coun and there seems To be no
loop hole for their refusing 10 pay
the bills. Besides if this matter is
made precedent for future action,
it will not be long before conta-
glous diseases will be allowed full
sway, because people will not work
unless paid for it. And again, in
this case, Commissioners Perkins
and Grimmett ordered the house
quarantined on the advice of DR..
GuYon, and the board ought to
have endorsed their actions. Mr..
Perkins took the ground that the
county was liable for all expenses,
but the other two failed to agree
with him. We are sorry the mat
ter has arisen for it will be hard
hereafter to enforce quarantine
although the law expressly directs
it to be done.
