OBITUARY.
For long weary days since the news
was first spread over the community
announcing Mrs. ID. A. McKeith's dan
gerous illness, feeling of anxiety has
possessed the whole people. On last
Wednesday, when it was announced
that she could not live, many were the
anxious enquiries of one from another
and a shadow fell upon the feelings
and faces of all. The long and happy
acquaintance of the people with Mrs
McKeith, and the sad circumstances
connected with her sickness, elected
the sympathy of all. All these feelings
became gloom when the sad announce
ment of her death was made on Thurs
day morning.
Mrs. Dora McKeith was born in Man
chester, New Hampshire, June 8, 1872
and died i'll Yale, at the home of her
parents, Mr.. and Mrs. III. A Sawyer, on
Wednesday, March 81, 1900, aged 27
years, 8 months and l3 days. She was
married to Duncan McKeith on April
IL, 1898. Her, to us who remain, un-
timely death, leaves this husband and
an infant daughter, little Airline, with
out the best earthly factor in all homes,
wife and mother. She being the only
child, her decease leaves the father and
mother, childless in old age. The fact
that Airline is spared and bids fair to
grow up and in time speak the endear-
ing words of grandpa and grandma, is
the only shade of light in this dark
picture. This sad blow comes with
double force on Mr.. Sawyer, as of late
he has been quite poorly, and the
weight of this great sorrow is very de-
pressing.
The funeral services will take place
tomorrow, Saturday, at l: 80 p. m. un
der the auspices Of the Eastern Star
and will be held at the home so dear
to the deceased. Rev. j. ii. Rowe will
ofliciate. The interment will be in
Elmwood cemetery. Words of sympa-
thy come from all, and the bereaved
friends have the assurance that their
sorrow is felt, though less intensely,
by many others as well as themselves
***
Died at the home of his parents, Mr..
and Mrs. A. Wilt in Greenwood, March
lG, 1900, Frank Wilt, aged twelve years.
His sickness was brief, lasting but two
days. The funeral occurred Monday,
in the Brockway Catholic church, Rev.
Father Cullinane officiating, and the
interment was made in the KenOckee
cemetery.
The following tribute is paid the
memory of little Frank by his school
mates: We the friends and comrades
Of Frank Wilt, deeply feeling the loss
Of our beloved schoolmate, wish to ex-
tend to the bereaved family our SYM
pathy in the loss of one who was loved
by all. Another place is vacant in the
home, the school and society. We
trust that clothed in robes of white he
is singing with the thrOng of loved
ones gone before, in those happy man
sions where we may some day one and
all meet him. May his death enable
us to realize how uncertain life is, and
may we his companions prepare to
join the one who has completed his
toilsome journey before us. All of
which was adopted by the teacher and
pupils in district No. q, Greenwood.
