OBITUARY..

MRS. ELIZA WICKER CALENDER.
Mrs. Eliza Wicker Calender died of
paralysis at her home on Weybridge
street in this village shortly before Md
night on Monday. The funeral was at
tended from the house at IL o'clock yes
terday forenoon, Rev. DR.. Charles S.
Murkland conducting the service. The
burial was IN the East cemetery at Shore
ham, Rev. f. G. Partridge, the local
Congregational pastor, officiating.
Mrs. Calender was in her 10Th year
and was the daughter of Lemuel and
Sarah (HaskelD Wicker. who came from
Hardwick, Mass, in 1916 and settled on
the shore of Lake Champaign in Orwell a
little south of Mt. Independence. There
were four other children, all of whom
have passed away-two daughters, Mary,
who became the wife of Dewitt Webb,
and Abigail, who married Louis LaVake,
both dying in early wOmanhood. and
two sons, Cyrus W., long a leading
citizen of Ferrisburgh, and Charles H..
for many years a substantial resident of
New Haven. On October 10, 1898, the
subject of this notice married Col. Clark
Calender of Shoreham, a grandson of
Amos Calender, one of the pioneers of
that town. Mr.. Calender died twenty
years idltT. III tIlc lhll VI looO, Out tIe
family continued its residence In Shore
North Ferrisburgh. There they re-
NAMED for eight years while the elder
daughter, Emma H., was fitting herself
for the practice of medicine. upon the
active practice of which profession she
entered in the early part of 1873, when
the family took up its residence In Mid
dlebury. DR.. Calender died in 1873.
The other children of Mrs. Calender
were son, Gustavus Austin, who died
In 1859 at the age of ten years. and Miss
Ada B., who survives.
Like many another New England
farmers wife, Mrs. Calender early found
plenty of work, and hard work at that,
to be done, and in lS49-half century
ago-she became an invalid i'm conse-
quence of overeXertioD. For the follow
ing fifteen years she kept about, but the
last thirty-five years of her life were
wholly spent in darkened room, where
she was constantly confined to her bed i,
except for an hour or two at time at
infreQuent intervals. Naturally active
both physically and mentally, she sub
mitted to her afiiiction with remarkable
patience. and up TO the time of the at
tack of paralysis few weeks ago she
retained lively Interest in the concerns
of the household, of the town and of the
world at large. She was a woman of
striking presence, her face reminding
one of the portraits of Savonarola, and
her mental gifts were of no mean order.
Those who were permitted to see her
when she was strong enough to receive
visitors were always forcibly impressed
not only by the extent and accuracy of
her KNOWLEDGE of events hut also nv the

house being crowded to the doors. The
performance was excellent. The solos
of DeForest West, III. w. Loomis and Ira
Wilkinson deserve especial mention, and
well merited the vociferous and enthusi-
astic applause that they received. The
audience was convulsed at times with
laughter at the amusing quips of the
comedians, most of the Jokes being new
to this city. Lahore, the contortionist,
was wonder. AS female impersona-
tor, DeForest West cannot be beaten.
Hugh McVey, the club swinger and cane
manipulation, was wonderful, and the ac-
robatic performance and boxing match
given by Cedaire and Edmonds was
enthusiastically received by the audience,
The evening passed all too quickly.-Ex-
