AT REST.
Mrs. G. M. Foster Died at Her
Home in this Village Monday
Afternoon.

Monday afternoon at about 2
o'clock, Mrs. G. M. Foster passed
peacefully away at her home 10 this
village, after lingering illness
from paralysis and heart trouble,
from which she had been long and
patient sufferer. About ten years
ago Mrs. Foster suffered stroke OF
paralysis, and for the past four
years had been perfectly helpless,
for many months even being de-
prived of the power of speech. Dur
ing her long illness she was always
patient, and the end. though CON-
ing suddenly, was doubtless pain
less, and while by her death great
vacancy has been left in the home,
still it is comfort to those who
we're near and dear to her to know
that she is now at rest and happy
in better world, where suffering
is unknown.
Deceased, whose maiden name
was Patience A. Harris, was born
in Fulton county, Ohio, April 16,
1885, and when quite young re-
moved with her parents to VAL
paraiso, Indiana, where they re-
sided for a few years and then
located in Wisconsin, 10 which state
she resided until 1891. In 1854 she
was united in marriage to William
w. Chapel. To them three children
were born, all of whom are still
living, viz: Miss Linnie and
Thomas, OF this village, and William
w., of Woodville, Wis. Her hus-
band, who was a soldier in the civil
war, died in March, 1865.
In March, 1872, deceased was
married, to George M. Foster,
at Fall City, Wis. BY this union
two children were born, Clarence,
of this village, and Mrs. Donald
Grant, Of Laird. Mr.. Foster died in
1891. Shortly thereafter, Mrs. Foster
removed to L 'Anse, accompanied by
three children, Miss Linnie and
Thomas Chapel, and Clarence
Foster, with whom she had since
made her home.
The remains, accompanied by
the daughter and sons, were taken to
Waneke, Wis, Wednesday evening,
where the funeral was held Fri
daY.
