In Memoriam-Mrs. John Maxwell.

Saturday, Feb. II, 1916, marked the
closing of a useful and beautiful life
when Mrs. John Maxwell passed away
at her home in Irasville.
Eliza, daughter of Thomas and Mar
garet MacMullen Ferris, was born in
Aramoy, County Antrim, Ireland, April
5. 1913. In early childhood she came to
Waitsield. She was married jan. 4,
1869, to John Maxwell, and became the
mother of nine children, eight of whom
lived to grow TO womanhood and man
hood under her exemplary guidance and
tender care. One little boy. Edwin j.,
died in 1881, at the age Of eight years.
Mrs. Maxwell's life was largely de-
voted to the interests of her home. where
no task was sighted by her so long as
it added to the enjoyment or welfare of
her family. She had a deep appreciation
of the best in literature and was a great
lover of poetry. A verse of Van Dykes,
copied in her diary, was one of her favor
ties:
self is the only prison that can ever
bind the soul;
Love is the only angel who can bid the
gates unroll;
And when He comes to call thee, arise
and follow fast,
His way may lead through darkness, but
it leads to light at last
Though retiring and gentle in her
Mrs. Maxwell's nature held
fine Scotch-Irish strain of integrity and
adherence TO principles of right and jus
lice that was inspiring to all with whom
she associated, and the devotion of her
ife partner and her children, who ten
lerly cared for her during her last i'll.
ness, was a fitting reward for life
lobly spent.
Besides her husband Mrs. Maxwell is |
nirviyed by six daughters and two sons, |
elizabeth b., Minnie NJ. Jennie f., wife /
Il Arthur H. Bailey of Waterbury, Cora |
L., wife of Roy Richardson, Emily b.. |
,laire f.. James II. of Waterbury and /
.harles r.. of Whitewater. Wis, and two |

The funeral was held Tuesday at ?
