DEATH OF MRS WILLIAM HOWA.

DEATH OF MRS WILLIAM HOWARD.
Mrs William Howard died at her
home in the west part of Morris,
March 6, after a brief illness with
pneumonia. A year ago, Mrs Howard,
then Sarah Simpson, left her home in
Ireland and came to America, where
Mr. Howard, her promised husband,
awaited her. Soon after her arrival
here they were quietly married, and
settled down in what promised to be a
happy home. And it was a happy
home as those who knew them could
testify, for they worked together, hand
in hand, to make it happy, and when
on the 18th of February, little twins
boy and girl came to them it seemed
as if their happiness was complete.
But the mother failed to gain strength
and when on March she was attacked
by pneumonia she commenced to fail
rapidly. Her husband scarcely left
her side, but although love and care
fought with the disease She gradually
grew weaker and on Wednesday morn
ing quietly fell asleep. Mrs Howard
was one who made many friends and
will be greatly missed by those who
had learned to love and respect her,
while the sympathy Of the entire COM
munity goes out to the sorrow-stricken
nuSDanQ ana MS mOUnerleSS little ones.

in carrying milk from Carmel Hill to
Middlebury amounts to good deal
when figured into dollars and cents.
