She was accompanied to the hospital

Howard's friends were legion and her
sudden death is keenly felt and her
early demise is severe loss to her
little children, who are now at an age
when they most need a mothers love
and care. Her aged parents are
stricken with grief and all the family
are bowed down with their great
sorrow.
The death of this pleasant young
woman was indeed a terrible shock to
her afflicted family and friends. This
happy, jovial girl as we knew her
when she was only child, was a de-
voted wife, fond mother and seemed
happy to be surrounded by her child
rem and husband. Although wrapped
up in her family and never happier
than when at their country home on
the Portage where she passed her
childhood days, she delighted to enter
tain their friends. We unite with the
friends of the family in rendering our
heartfelt sympathy to the bereaved
husband and children.
