Mrs. Gransberry, one of Audubon

in West town last Friday morning at
4 o'clock, after many months of suffer

means of relief, having undergone an
operation and at last was treated with
plasters, but of no avail. She was of
q very strong constitution and it was
surprising to friends to see how she
fingered and endured so much suffer
lug. She was quite aged and in her
early days had always been well and a
very hard worker. She leaves besides
an army of friends, four sons to mourn
her loss, three being married. Robert,
the youngest, and single, always re-
manned at home to care for his mother
in her old days The funeral was
held at the NJ. E. church Sunday after
noon at o'clock and the body laid to
rest in our beautiful cemetery beside
her husband who passed away some
few years ago. The community eX-
tend sympathy to the family. Those
who have had to endure the loss of
a mother can alone realize how hard it
is to partIwith them.
