Mrs. Martha (Barnes), wife OF Kimball
Williams, was found dead at a quarter to
six o'clock yesterday morning by Mr..
Williams, who knew that she had retired
the night before feeling rather chilly and
uncomfortable, but apprehended nothing
OF serious nature. She was kneeling by
the side OF her bed and had evidently just
risen when the summons came.
A weak heart, from which she had long
suffered, is supposed to have caused her
sudden decease, and its feeble action may
have been fatally impaired by severe at
tack OF grip that she had just had.
Mrs. Williams, who had reached the age
OF 65 years. 10 months and 4 days, was
born in Rochester. She lived many years
in Bethel Gilead but for the last nine
years her home had been in this village.
Besides her husband, she left four chill
dren, Frank Williams OF the Center, Ar.
thur Williams and Mrs. Gale Morse OF
Bethel and Hale Williams Of Randolph.
She is also survived by brother, A. G..
Barnes, of this place.
The funeral will be held Saturday fore
noon at II o'clock at the home On Central
street.

 The usual monthly meeting Of the Flower Growers' Association. which should have taken place on the ists of July. was postponed owing to the ab- sence of the President. and sickness in the home of officers.

 Several important matters will be considered; among them. our uniting with the Federation of Clubs. The floral discussion will be the Chry san themnm and fall Dahlias.
