From numerous friends of the de-
ceased Mrs. Barber has received tele-
grams of coincidence on the death of
her sister. Among them were tele.
grams from President Roosevelt and
Vice President Fairbanks.
Mrs. McNinley's life of almost sixty
years had been made familiar to the
nation by the fact that more than
half of it was a period of invalidism.
Through all this, however, she showed
firm and unwaverng belief In the
career of her husband, and by her
cheering words, in spite Of personal
affections. encouraged him when there
was darkness at hand. She believed
that his star of destiny would never
set until he had become president of
this land, and for more than a quarter
of n century cherished that belief un-
til her hopes We're realized.
After President McKinley's death
She expressed desire to join him, and
prayed day by day that she might die.
Later, however, she frequently told
friends she desired to live until the
completion of the Mckinley mausole.

down under the burden of grief that
was theirs. There were born to them
two daughters, Katie on Christmas
Day of 1871, and Ida on April /, 1878.
Bnth both died, Ida when four months
old and Katie when 3 years and G
