on learning Of her serious sickness. The
first word received here after their ar
rival was TO the effect that the chances
for her recovery were brighter than
had been anticipated. Later intell-
gence, however, brought the discour-
aging information that the end was
probably not far Off, and last evening
telegram was received by the family,
asking members thereof to meet the
midnight train. They knew that that
message meant that the spirit OF a
good woman had gone on a more ex-
tended trip OF mercy and relief than
the one to Emery county.
1t was on Wednesday. the 18th Inst,
that Mrs. Stevenson left Salt Lake on
the journey from which she was not
destined TO return alive. Accompany
ing her was Mrs. Hattie Harker, and

pated by the two ladies. When Hunt
lngton was reached, where a 6O-mile
journey by stage was begun, Mrs. Ste
venson, who up to that time had been
In average health, was seized with a
sudden and violent chill. She, how
ever, expressed a desire to continue To
her destination, to perform the mis-
sion to which she had been assigned.
Consequently the journey was resumed,
though the last few miles of travel
brought much distress to Mrs. Steven
son. When Emery was reached, the
STRICKEN woman CONTINUED to grow
worse, and her relatives and friends IN
Salt Lake were apprised of her condi-
ton, Mrs. Wilcox Immediately left for
the bedside OF her mother. Learning
OF the seriousness OF the case. the lat
ter sent for her husband, Or. G. II. VIII
cox, who arrived at Emery on Monday,
and the two remained with Mrs. Ste
venson, doing all that loving hands
could do, until the end came. Mrs.
IIarkcr, too WAS a vigilant and tireless
watcher at the bedside of her friend,
and, with Or. and Mrs. Wilcox, accom-
panied the remains to Salt Lake.
Mrs. Stevenson was born on the Isle
OF Jersey, in the English channel. Feb.
s. 1898. While still quite young she be-
came u member Of the Church Of Jesus
Christ OF Latter day Saints, and IN
1854 came with her mother to Utah.
This city has ever since been her homo.
On oct %, 1855, she became the wife II
