DEATH Of MRS. MRE
Another of Bryan's Christian Mothers
Has Been Called to Eternal
Rest.

Mrs. Mary Catherine Mize, the be
loved wife of Mr.. d. NJ. Mize, passed
into rest at the family home in this
city at 5:35 o'clock yesterday after
noon. Mrs. Mize had been Ill long
time, almost five weeks, during which
time everything possible was done for
her, btu it was all without avail. In
the fullness of Gods own time the
summons had come and she obeyed.
Mrs. Mize was Miss Mary Catherine
McIyer born at Sabine, Texas, March
rs, 1S45, making her at the time OF
her death 67 years, 2 months and 2S
days OF age. She was married to Mr..
David NJ. Mize, May 26, 1865, at Mad-
sonville, Texas Eight children were
born to this union, three dying in in
fancy. and one daughter, Mrs. E. II.
Baker, died three years ago.
She is survived by her aged hus-
band and four children, viz: Mrs.
Paschal Buford of Austin, Mrs. Albert
Hanneman, Mr.. Mack MiZe and Miss
Blanche Mize of this city. She also
leaves one sister, Mrs John Wilkin-
son OF Itasca. and one brother, Mr..
John McTyer of Madisonville. The
members of the family and other rela-
tives have the profound sympathy of
all in their great bereavement.
Mrs. Mize came to Bryan with her
husband about nineteen years ago and
during the time they lived here she
made host of friends by whom she
was dearly beloved. She was de-
voted member of the Methodist church
and had been since childhood. During
her long illness she bore her suffer
ings with that Christian fortitude that
comes only from an unfaltering trust
In God.
She was laid to rest in the city
cemetery at 4 o'clock this afternoon.
