Recent Deaths.
Bell,

The death of Mrs. Alice Robie Bell,
daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. ]. F. Robie of
Edgewood, Ca, occurred at the home OF
Luther Brown, near St. Johnsbury Cen
ter, Sunday afternoon, after a brave
struggle for the past seven mouths for
mastery over i'll health. Alice Robie was
born near St. Johnsbury Center, 33 years
ago last February, and while quite
young her parente went to Grand Rapids,
Mich, where they spent few years,
going from there to Atlanta, of which
Edgewood is a suburb. In October,
1896, she was married to ]. Pierce
Bell, who is city salesman for John Silvey
& Co., wholesalers in Atlanta, and son
of the pastor OF The Methodist church in
Newborn, Ga. Mrs. Bell has always
been devoted worker in the Methodist
church, wherever she has lived and was
last year president of the W. H. M. u,
at Edgewood, and until her health failed
was member of the choir. She readily
made friends among her associates, be-
cause OF her social disposition and cheer
ful manner, which she always retained.
When i'll health came she went to Charles.
ton, S. c., in search OF relief. and after
spending some time there she went to
West Somerville, Mass, but her desire
was not satisfied until she reached again
the scenes of her childhood, where she
continued to hope for renewed health
and strength, which hope she never gave
up. She has spent several summers with
friends here, and it has been her pleasure
to visit with them during the past few
weeks. She leaves besides her husband,
her father, mother, and one sister, all OF
whom have assisted in caring for her.
The funeral was held Tuesday forenoon,
Rev. !. M. Frost officiating, and the
burial was at St. Johnsbury Center.
Mrs. Blanche Brockway sang Some
time" at the service at the cemetery.
Beautiful flowers testified to the love ot
her many friends.

spinning his cocoon Monday afternoon
and regardless OF many spectators, he
kept steadily on with his work. AS this
