MARGARET d. REEs.

Wales. sanpete County May 81, 1888,
Our little settlement was Overshad-
owed with gloom this morning by the
death of our beloved sister, Margaret
d. Rees, who passed away at o'clock
a. m, May %, 1898. If she had lived
until Nov. LIST she would have been
50 years old, but old age and general
debility gave death chance to prey
upon her system, and separate for q
time the spirit from its earthly tab
ernacln.
She leaves behind her eight children.
seventy-one grandchildren, eighty
eight great grandchildren, along with
many friends to mourn her loss. She
was born In Carmarthcn, wales, Eng
land. November /. 1878. She Joined the
church in the year 1912, being one Of
the first to embrace the Gospel in that
locality. She emigrated to Utah In 1856,
pulling her handcart thirteen hundred
miles from Iowa City to salt Lake.
Her early days IN Utah were spent in
ogden and Spanish Fork, She moved
to Wales, Sanpete county in 1So9,where
she lived until her death.
AS n Saint she always showed her
willingness to obey the counsel Of the
authorities and by so doing she was
| able to live the life OF a faithful Lat
ter-day Saint. She loved the Gospel
she espoused insomuch that she was
willing to leave the home OF her birth

time she heard the Gospel in her ina

h,ord to remit or abate the taxes of
,rs,ne idlotic. lnfirm or INDECENT per-
sons under section $3.50 of the Revised

void.
Tho proceeding was commenced
s,me time ago by state Auditor Rich
aids. who petiloned FOR writ Of pro-
blbrion to prohibit the county board
~ equalization from renting or abat-
tho the taxes referred to, TO an amount
nat exceeding $40 for the current year.
The position taken by Auditor Rich
aids was that the statute was uncOh-
stitutionaI and that the Legislature
"a not the power, under the CoHsti-
iptinn. to exempt property from taxa
aim. except such as Is expressly eN-
r,,,t,d by virtue of the COnstitu-
tin6 and that the remitting or abating

Defendants conceded that If the
ob,tement OF tax was in enect the
snme as an exemption, the board
had no authority to abate.
ma nuegtian for the court to pass
,tnnn was whether an abatement on
taxable property which Is owned by
an insane, inirm. idiouc or lndlgenl
nrrson, is prohibited by the state CON
statutlon. as being an exemption of
1,S,u sg' from taxation, which is not
Included wNhln the list OF exemptions
contained In the fundamental law.
After reviewing the law and the
Constltttion. the court finds that the
statute Is In direot violation OF the
Constltution and therefore void, The
court further finds that a similar uues-
ton was before the supreme court ui
california and reported in Al Cal. 81,
Concluding. the court says:
"In arriving AIT the conclusion that
the provision of the statute In contrp-
yersy Is null and void, we Were not un-
mindful of the fact that the question

ture is void because OF Its repuEnancy
