pay one half the cost of the sidewalks.

sided in this city for nearly two years
past, died at her home OH Ward street
Wednesday evening, July 3lst, at six
o'clock, aged % years and eight months.
Death followed severe attack of ill
ness of a mental nature that she suf-
fered two weeks ago, and from which
she had been steadily growing worse.
Her husband, Rev. Samuel &. Bettes,
was summoned from Pennsylvania
where he was holding revival meet
ings, as soon as she was stricken, and
was constantly at her bedside until the
end came.
The deceased lady had suffered for a
number of years, her malady being one
that defied medical treatment and ellie
tied the sympathy of all who knew her.
In her youth she was an exceptionally
bright woman, being highly educated
and successful teacher. Her home
for years prior TO her coming to Cros-
well was at Yale, to which place her
body was taken today for burial. A
short service was held at the family
residence last evening.
Mrs. Bettes was the mother of seven
children, five daughters and two sons,
Mrs. Jess Roadway and Miss Gerte

est daughters. Her oldest son, viii
