Affinity" Cain as she was lovingly
callefls was woman Of many fine
qualities of mind and heart. Being
possessed Of kind and cheerful dis
position she attracted to her both
young and old. Truly, 'to know her
was to love her. She was a life
and living example of its peaceful
teachings. She was the last OF a
family of five children, OUTLYING the
others by several years. In a re-
markable degree her facilities re-
manned unlmpaired to within few
weeks of her death. OF her it could
be said Thou shalt come to thy
grave in a full age, like shock Of
corn cOmeth in his season.
We grieve not for her, knowing that
she has gone home" but our hearts
go out in sympathy to those who will
miss her SO sadly. ,.r
