and furnished. The cottage is nicely
sheathed with hard wood. There is
piazza around two sides. There is a
nice stable short distance from the

and six o'clock making few calls.
After supper her husband went for ice,
and on returning found her senseless.

husband and little son. Mrs. Wing
was pleasant and agreeable lady, and

greatly missed by all. Funeral services
