MRS. GEORGE A. DANE.

rs when it was learned that Mrs.
George Dane had died during the
night. It seemed to all that it simply
could not be so and it yet seems as if
we must see her in her accustomed
places. She will be missed terribly
not only in the home where she was a
good wife and mother, but in the
Baptist church and Ladies' Aid society.
In every good cause she was always
ready to give of her time, strength and
means. Mrs. Dane has been member
of the Baptist church since she was
about Is years old. She waa the only
child of the late julius and Amanda
(McMaster) Oliver. and was born here
in 1859, and has always lived here.
She married George A. Dane of this
place. who with their three children,
Ora M, Harry O., and Stella A., all of
this place, survive her. There are also
several grandchildren. One little
grandson, when speaking of his grand
ma after her death, remarked, "Well, l
suppose it will be long while before l
see her again. May the sorrowing
relatives have as great faith, that
eventually they will see her again.
Mrs. Dane was sick only a week.
Pneumonia was feared but the cause of
death was her weak heart. The funer-
al was held in the Baptist church,
