Mrs. Mary T. Woods died at the home
of her son. c, H. Woods, Friday evening,
January 25, at little past nine O'Clock.
The funeral service was held at the Rap
fist church, Monday at 2 p. M, Rev. {.
D. R. Meacham officiating. Beautiful
floral offerings were made by the church,
the class in Sunday school OF which she
was long member, and by her children
and grandchildren. Mary T. Woods was
born in Waterford Dec. 81, 1925. Her
father and mother were Luther and Ma
omi Potter Winslow. She was mar
ried in August, 1871, to John B. Woods
and lived first upon the farm where A.
F, Lawrence now lives, and afterward
upon the farm now owned by E. H. Rus
sell, where nearly 40 years of her life were
spent. Four children were born to them,
Edwin E who was for many years
successful merchant in Passumpsic and
who died in 1885, Rosa NJ, who mar
ried Ira T. Harvey and whose death was
noticed in these columns three weeks
ago; Charles H., with whom the sub
iect OF this sketch lived during the last
years OF her life, and Willis F., who died
in February, 1898. John B. Woods, her
husband, died nearly 10 years ago, so
she has lived to lay away all of her fam
lily save one. Besides her son, she leaves
a brother, George W. Winslow, and
sister, Mrs. Lydia Harvey, both Of this
village. At the early age of eight years
she became christian and united with
the Baptist church here, and for many
years she and her husband were among
its most active supporters. The last
years of her lite were years of great
weakness, and as the days went by, the
vearnrng of her heart was for rest. She
will be missed in the home where she has
lived, and also in the community, es-
pecially BY those who have frequently
called upon her and have shown her so
many kindnesses.
