STOCKTON SPRINGS. The decease of Mrs.
Edward Lafolley brings sense of loss to
the whole community, where she had large
circle of relatives and friends. She had
been in failing health from heart trouble
for two years past, and suffered a partial
shock of paralysis in the early autumn, but
had sufficiently recovered to be about the
house, and was greatly enjoying the visit of
her son and family, when She was seized
with an attack of grip Jan. 24th, followed
by second paralytic stroke, which rem
dered her entirely helpless. Her strength
constantly failed, and she finally sank into
unconsciousness, from which she never
reused, passing away at noon, Thursday,
Jan. 31th. Possessing all the most wOmanly
and domestic traits of character, she was a
loving and devoted wife and mother, who
looked "well to the ways of her household ;"
and was always a kind, helpful and charita-
BILE friend and neighbor. She was men,
Der of the UniverSalist church, and while
her health permitted was an active worker
in all matters for the public good. Her
pleasant face and genial companionship
will be greatly missed by all who knew her !;
and to her immediate family her loss is ire
parable. She was born So years ago, the
daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Ira Blanchard,
and in early life was united in marriage to
Capt. Bradford Griffin. Of this union two
children were born, Mr.. Brainard Griffin,
now of St. Paul, Mimi, and Miss Clara
Griffin, the daughter who has so tenderly
cared for her mother during all her years of
ill-health. Capt. Griffin died at sea and the
ocean burial was a great shock to the young
wife and mother. After several years of
widOwhOod she married Edward Lafolley,
becoming true mother to his three chill
dren by former marriage. To her hus-
band (who is now i'll with an attack of grip,
the children, two brothers and two sisters,
who mourn her loss, the sympathy of many
friends is extended. The funeral services
took place at her home on Church street,
Saturday, P. NJ, Feb. End, Rev. A. A. Smith,
of Belfast officiating most acceptably, and
the beautiful floral tributes testified to the
esteem and love in which the deceased was
held by relatives and friends. ..... .Veazie
