RECENT DEATHS.


NALlACF.
The following tribute to the memory OF
Miss Cora Wallace brief mention ofwhose
death was made in these columns last
week, is taken from the East Brady
Review:
The deceased was born at Brady's
Bend, and practically all her life had
been spent in this neighborhood. She
was young woman of markedly bright
mentality, and possessed many lovable
traits that endeared her to a large circle of
friends. Though an invalid for the past
ten or twelve years, and shut In from
active affairs of life, these hours were not
spent in I'd dleness, but in the cultivation
OF letters and art in which she took keen
interest. She was connoisseur in litera-
ture and painting, and had gathered about
her a valuable library of rare books. In
painting she was an artist of no mean
ability, and n number of canvasses attest
TO her skill in this direction, and as
painter of china she also eXcelled. Miss
Wallace was also an author of some note,
and had written several treatises op the
care of house pets, in which she took an
interest. Ambitious in her search for
knowledge, her ambition outrau the frail
body which housed the indomitaule
| spirit, and finally after years of suffer
| ing and pain, the silver cord was broken
and the spirit returned to Him who gave
| it.
The funeral services were held at the
late home Sunday afternoon at 1870
o'clock, conducted by Rev. Harry 5.
Bates, of Findley Lake, n. Y, assisted
by Revs. Latierty, Miller and Mayne, OF
East Brady. Taking for his text, "For l
have conquered DEATH" Rev. Bates spoke
eloquently of the departed. During the
services Rev. Miller and daughter sang
several Duets. The Il raj tributes were
many and beautiful, the room in which
the body lay in state being filled with the
choicest blooms.
