bedside critically noting every new symptom and development ID Der case but with all the combined enoFt ana wisdom of the gentlemen. they were powerieSs to stay the hand of death.
 She was highly blessed in her last days, having the kindly ministrations of her own dear relatives. sympathlz ing friends and neigh6orS with whom she had lived and associated for The past few years. During her short iii- ness while her suffering was intensely severe she was not known to mdrmur or complain. Her christian life was fully exemplifed in her suffering and death. 4 noble life went out when she expired for she was full Of good works, ever ready to respond 70 the appeals of charity and extend Der in- iuence at ali times for the better ment of the condition of society ID which she moved.
 She was endowed with those super for qualities that are needful to make a successful fnancier. For quite number Of years she was compelled to put herself in touch with the outer world in the transaction of business. She was always successful in every business transaction and overcame every hostile element that might be thrown in her way for the purpose of defeating her plans By her integrity and the honest methods she employed in her business course, she has erected an- imperishable monument to Der memory. She was just as c0nscien- tious in the discharge of her religious duties and obligatio-s as she was with the secular and temporal things of life. She was highly esteemed oY the people 0f Seligman and vicinity in which she has made her home for q number 0f years where she has been member If society in her public and social relation. That fact was fully verified iu the preparatory arrange ments for her funeral. Mrs. Broad, one Of the ladies of the town in con- pany with others selected the choicest floral decoration at their disposal and beautifully and beeomingly deco rated the church and pulpit in appre- citation of the many kindly flowers the deceased had strewn along life's path way.
 Another mark of honor thus conferred upon her was the suspension of all kinds Of business during the funeral service, the merchants and the various classes of business men attending the funeral servIces. On the faces Of the majority of the great number that followed her remains tn the cemetery could be detected the sym mpathizing tear expressive Of the deep sorrow Of the soul on account of the bereaved home and community.
 She was laid to rest ID the Selil ma Il cemetery with all the kindness and respect that devoted children could confer on loving and honared mother.
 Her five children that survive her take bereavement very deeply to heart but as they assigned her body to the grave that christian life which she lived enabled them ta look beyond the grave to the home of the chris. tian m glory.
 The funeral services were conducted by the writer.
 Farewell dear sister,
 We miss thy stately form
 But would not call thee back
 From thy joys of immortal bliss
 To have thee r sume the aches
 And pains Of mortality
 Thou art sleeping the sleep of death
 Thou hast taken up thy abode
 Ia the city of the dead.
 Where winter winds and
 Summer suns will play
 Upon thy mound until the
 Resurrection shall rob thy tomb
