 On the night of January 3rd of the present year, Mrs. Ruby Lovin wife of our beloved brother, Henry Lovin obeyed the final summons and passed to the eternal home. The news fash ed through the community like an electric shock, and yet, death came to her as peacefully as the gentle night wind that waited her soul to the home beyond our mortal sight. She was a loving wife and mother, a dutiful daughter, an affectionate sister, a devoted friend and will be deeply mourned not only by her worthy husband, beloved parents and bereav- ed brother and sister; but also by a large circle of friends whose love and affection she secured by her kindly spirit and amiable qualities, her death leaves motherless two little girls, one about twelve and the other three years of age. The funeral was held from Elk's Hall, it having the largest seating capacity of any public building in town. Friends from all over the County, delegations from the fraternsl organizations of which her husband is a worthy member, and associates from every walk of life gathered to pay the last tribute of respect to one they had estee nd frJn nsc eIrly girlhood. Judge Wm. G. Blakely, a lifelong friend, delivered an impressive ad- dress briefly reviewing the beautiful life of the depasSsi. He voiced the sentiments of sorrow felt for the husband, parents, mother-less children, brother and sister, and found sympa- thetic response in the hearts of the loyal friends gathered to do honor to one whose good and kind words would remain fadeless forever in their memories. The young mems squartette, assisted by Miss Hubbs, pianist, furnished appropriate music. The largest procession ever seen in the County followed the remains to the grave. The casket was banked with beautiful floral tokens each bearing its silent message of sympathy. The interment was in Kingman Cemetery All business was suspended during the hours of the funeral; every store, every saloon, every office and work shop being closed.
