John Humid. whose faithful compan,
ion and help-meet passed to the
higher life Monday afternoon at

was done to prolong life, but to
no avail.
In order to have the family all
together the remains were taken

Mrs. Hund's maiden name was
Miss Clara Mum and she was born
in Kentucky in 1916. In 1870 she
was joined in the bonds of holy
matrimony to John Humid, then
resident of Kit Carson, Colo. Four
years later they moved to Califor-
mia and in 1909 to the Mimbres Val
ley, where they quickly gained the
respect and admiration of every
resident.
To this union were born five chill.
dren, Mrs. Hattie kneiss, of San
Francisco; Mrs. Ella Sylvester, of
Winslow, Ariz., and Mrs. Anna
Raby. of Los Angeles. John died
at the age of 10 and May at the age
of Is. Mrs. j. +. Diendonne.
niece, is the only relative in the vi.
cinity.
