Well from Mrs. Zun- ders house forty-two years ago. Dur ing her married life Mrs. Veil was a most devoted wife and an intensely affectionate mother. For many years she was an ardent worker in Mishkan Israel affairs and her kindly hand was always outstretched in aid of the de- serving poor of the congregation. She was also valuable member of Joche- bed lodge No. 4, U. o. T. S., and of Columbia Rebecca lodge No. 15, l. 0. o. F.

"A careful record is kept Of the weight
