From Thursdays Daily.
Mrs. James G.. Ballard died at
2:30 o'clock this morning at her
home in Mankato township, after an
illness dating back five years. She
first had spinal trouble, and was
treated by an osteopath, and can

Throughout all of her long suffer
ings she was patient and cheerful.
The maiden name of the deceased
was Miss Amelia Plumb, and she
was a daughter of the late Mr.. and
Mrs. Charles N. Plumb of Lyra, and
it was there that she was born and
raised. Her age was forty-four years
and five months. She was married
December 80, 1892, to Mr.. Ballard,
and is survived by him and by a
daughter, Ella, and also by one
brother, Charles Lee Plumb, who is
residing with his brother-in-law, Mr..
Ballard.
Mrs. Ballard was devoted mem
Der of the Seventh Day Adventist
church, and was most estimable
lady, who had large circle of
friends, to whom her many excel
lent qualities had endeared her. She
was a devoted wife and mother, and
her death is severe blow to her
family.
Short funeral services will be held
at nine O'Clock Sunday morning at
the residence, and services will be
held at the church at Good Thunder
at 1850 O'Clock, and the interment
will be made there beside the re-
mains of her parents.

in their hearts that the new club
