ews of the death of "Aunt
>" Hiner, which occurred on
lrday last at the home of her
son, Mr.. Ben Hiner, caused
line sorrow wherever she was
wn. The last hours Of the dy-
year was an appropriate time
the closing of a life so full OF
rs, good works and kind deeds,
the visit of the Grim Reaper,
l when the sheaves are fully

i'd fain keep these dear old

Aunt Jane was of the dear,
d motherly type which won the
rts of all who met her, and the
iliar appellation by which she
so widely known, was not en-
yed as an empty, formal courte-
but rather as a term Of genuine
Garment, an expression OF soVe
veneration for one who was
v good and kind. Soon the
;ence of these dear, old-fashion-
motherly souls, with pipe and
ttlng-needles, will be only a
nory, and the vacant place by
hearth-stone can never be filled.
