dened by the hand of death. One OF
our most beloved women, Mrs. Pheob
A. Cook passed away early Wednes-
day morning. Phoebe Ann Gibbs wal
born in Wetmore, England, Septem-
Der ~, 1S47. She was GO years, 8
months and II days Of age when cal
led away. She came to America
with her parents, Mr.. and Mrs. John
Gibbs in 1852. Mr.. Gibbs bought land
iof the government and settled east
of Earlville near this vicinity where
she has always lived. She attended
the early public schools and learned
much Of the pioneer life in her daily
walks. On March "a. 1872 she was
united in marriage to Mr.. John Cook
OF England and they Immediately set
tiled on a farm. One little daughter
blessed this union but she was not
permitted to remain long. During
i their many years of life on their
| farm they were always cO-workers.
Aunt Phoebe as she was affectionate-
lly called, was always faithful to the
duties that fell to her lot and was
splendid helpmate. During the past
seven years they have lived in their
beautiful home in Earlville. She IS
survived by her devoted husband who
has been untireing in his care of her
in her long years of illness, the M
mess that finally terminated her life.
Two brothers, John and George gibbs
and four sisters, Mrs. Sarah Pilgrim,
lof Greeley, Mrs. Elizabeth Cousins,
Mrs. Eliza Vanfleet and Mrs. Mary
Bisgrove all Of Earlville. -Four sisters
and two brothers preceded her to the
Iother shore. During the many years
OF her declining health she was ever
patient and cheerful. No one ever
came to their home without feeling
that she and her husband had accord

long confinement to the house their
friends were often in their home
Such life OF patient endurance
should indeed be a lesson to all VINO

young womanhood she became mem

to the end. Although denied the
pleasure OF the sanctuary she was al

dear friend, death has brought to her
very sweet release from her suffer
ings, and no-v we must think OF her
in that home where death and disease
enters not.
She will be happy there with her
babe and dear ones who have preced-
ed her. The funeral services were
