Death of Mrs. Hull.
The entire community was saddenet
last week by the death of Mrs. Robert
Hull, who died Friday morning. Grace
Morgan was born at Barnet, March %
1882, the daughter of Mrs. Andrew

Barnet and Hardwick. She attended
school at st. Tohnsbury Academy. Soon
after, she came to this town to reside.
She was married to Robert Hull July 20,

Theodore, Grafton, Dorothy and little
daughter born July 4th. She leaves be-
sides her husband and children, a mother
and four half brothers and sisters: Mrs.
Jennie Bruce, Passumpsic, Henry Nor
gan. Littleton, Frank Vallier Berlin, N.
H., and May Morgan of Concord. The
cause of her death was nervous ex-
haustion. Mrs. Hull was a rare woman.
Possessed of an unusually pleasant dis
position, beautiful face and an attrac-
tive personality, she made many friends
and kept them. She was home lover
and was ever dutiful wife and mother,
sacrificing her own comforts and pleas
ures to that of those with whom she
came in contact. 1t was with genuine
sorrow that her death caused all heads
to bow with grief. Words are inadequate
to express the admiration and esteem in
which she was held, or the sorrow that
touched all hearts at her death. Funeral
services were held from her late home
Saturday morning. Rev. A. M. Smith,

she was a very consistent member, as
