the OPT onents Of the new law were loud

NEAR THE CENTURY MARK.
Death of Mrs. Martha Nichols in Her
93d Year.

Death of Mrs. Martha Nichols in Her
93d Year.
Atthe hour of on Tuesday morning,
August 80, 1898, there passed to the
other world the spirit of one who was
counted among the very Oldest resi-
dents of this section in the person of
Mrs. Martha Nichols, relict of Philip
Nichols. The end came peacefully and
without pain, in entire accord with the
beautiful life ebbing away, and in the
presence of her children who had been
SO much to her in this world.
In many ways Mrs. Nichols was a
most remarkable woman. Although
in her 93d year, she had enjoyed I'M
usual good health until few months
ago, and up to the last was in full pos
session of her faculties. Hers was a
familiar figure on our streets and it
was often remarked how active she
was for one of her advanced age. She
was woman Of rare intelligence,
grace and beauty of character-On in
whose society was found pleasure and
profit. Not only was she endowed
with rich intellectual gifts, but with
those queenly attributes which obtain
in the true Christian woman and go to
make up life of purity and correct as
sociations, with faith, hope and charity
the uppermost precepts. AS such a
person was Mrs. Nichols known, an
in her departure hence all will realize
that a beautiful life has been called to
meet it's Creator.
The deceased was born at Lima, N
Y, June 27, 1906, her maiden name
being Stevens. When still a child
she removed with her parents to De-
troit, Mich, the family being among
the early pioneers Of that state. In
1881 she married Philip Nichols and
twenty years later the couple located
in Milwaukee. They removed here in
1854 and Mr.. Nichols was engaged in
the grain and commission business I'M
til his death in 1870. Mrs. Nichols
is survived by four children: Mel
vile, of Chicago; George, Of La Crosse;
Mrs. J. H. Lightbody, Of La Crosse, and
Miss Emily, of this city, the latter
living with and caring for her mother
in her declining years.
Mrs. Nichols religious affiliations
were with the Congregational faith,
and during her long residence here
she was prominent and Influential
member of the local church. The
funeral will be held tomorrow an(
the remains taken to Milwaukee fol
! burial.
