A faithful wife, fond mother loving
sister, kind neighbor has been called and
only those bound to her by the strongest
and most sacred ties, can measure the
loss. The sympathy for this suddenly
bereaved family was evidenced by all the
aid they could give during her brief ill.,
sad rites and by the profasion of choice
flowers, gifts of love from thoughtful
friends. Nay the memory of her un.
selfish life, her kind thought for others,
her tender care for her husband and
children, remain with and be hallowed
to them through all the coming years.
Her children rise up and call her
blessed; her husband also, and he praiS-
