ed this life on the 10th. day of
December A. d. 1908, aged 80
years, 10 months and Is days.
She was united in marriage with
Samuel llerl in early life, which
union was by the grim reaper
death, dissolved in the year A. d.
1878, her children consisting of
two sons and four daughters. All
survive her save and except one
son, which died In infancy.
She was a kind and indulgsnt
wife and mother, and was held in
the highest esteem by all who
knew her, for her kind, neighborly
and obliging disposition.
Her last sickness, though of sew
eral months duration was borne
with patience, which only could be
shown by one who is enabled as
she was in her last hours to de-
clare that II am ready to go when.

She leaves one son, four daugh-
ters and large number of rela-
tives and friends to mourn the loss
of her. yet with the consolation
that we believe our loss to be her
eternal gain.
A precious one from as has gone,
voice we loved Is stilled,
A place Is vacant In our home
That never can be filled.
