OBITUaRY.
Be still prepared for death and death or
life shall thereby be the sweeter.-
Shakespeare.


So faithful to her post of duty as
nurse, giving up her own needed rest
and sleep and thus undermining her
health and vitality, Miss ID. Innetta
Hubbard, sister of Mrs. Stephen Wind
sor, succumbed to typhoid fever after
five weeks struggle.
Miss Hubbard went to Brown City to
nurse Rev. Russell Dodd of the Memo
mite church, who with many others,
contracted this disease at Petoskey.
Several have died, but through the un-
remitting care of his nurse Mr.. Dodd
recovered to see his faithful attendant
stricken down. Although nurse
was procured, the body weakened from
long watches, having passed from one
case to another almost since she started
on her career as nurse which has only
been about one year, could not with
stand the ravages OF the disease and
she died Wednesday, November %.
| 1905.
The remains were brought to Yale
on Thursday and taken directly to
