of Aurora, LII. She was the mother of foul
sons: Henry c., BueI W., Edison B. and
Hartley ID. Standard, three of whom sur
vive her, Henry having died years ago
She was one of the best of women, a kind
friend and neighbor. No one in need OF
aid which she could render, during her
residence of forty-five years in town, was
ever turned from her door empty handed.
Her decease will be greatly regretted by all
who knew her and much sympathy is felt
for the relatives.

death and burial of our loved one. AS her
