CABOT
Community Saddened by Deaths of Mrs.
MAY Lance and Little Doris Lawson.

Lance, at Lower Cabot, the communit
has lost citizen beloved, who will b
greatly missed by the many to whom he
gentle heartedness and kindly virtue
were familiarly known. Modest to
fault, she lived that life of unaffecte'
goodness and kindness which is ire
sistibly winsome and which lends it
halo to the universal mother memory
She passed away in the midst of he
family and in the possession of ever,
comfort and every ministry which low
could supply. Hers was the simple
guileless nature possessed by those Of
whom the Master asid, "Of such is the
kingdom Of heaven" She leaves two
daughters and one son, two sisters anc
brother in Rhinelander, Wis, and
sister in Marshfeld. The floral tributes
testified the affection of those nearest
and dearest. Funeral services were held
at the home, Rev. M. w. Hale officiat'
ing. Her remains were laid to rest in
the family lot in Durant cemetery at
Lower Cabot.
Sorrow and affection came to the home
of Mr.. and Mrs. Edgar Lawson when
their daughter, Doris Belle, aged III
years, was taken away by death after
only few days illness of heart trouble.
Medical aid was summoned and coun-
Gil of doctors was held, but all that HUI
man aid could do proved unavailing.
On Wednesday morning she was released
from all earthly suffering. She was
one of family of six children, an ex-
cellent scholar, member of the NJ. E.
Sunday school. The funeral service was
held at the home Friday afternoon, Rev.
j. S. Grassland officiating, assisted by
Rev. f. E. Cilrrier. The attendance OF
her schoolmates and the Kings Daugh-
ters, who sat in body, and the profu-
sion of flowers that covered the caskct
bore testimony of love for her and sym
pathy for the bereaved parents, brothers
and sisters. Her remains were placed
in the family lot in Cabot cemetery.
