which mean so much not only to her
family but to the entire community
in which she lived. Although past
eighty years of age. she still retained
the youthful instincts and the cheer
mess which made her so beloved by
all who knew her. Two men of this
vicinity who have known and loved
Grandma" Martin since their early
boyhood, spoke glowing tributes Of
her sweetness and bravery and kind
ness, and Of what her death meant
to those who had known her and
whom she had loved
Mrs. Martin and her husband came
to Minnesota from the east in 1867
making their home first in Dakota
County. A little later they came to
Renville. settling at Beaver Falls
where they lived until coming to
Redwood Falls two years ago. Mrs.
Martin is survived by her husband,
two daughters, Mrs. HI. A. Baldwin
of Redwood Falls and Mrs. Elfrink
Of Olivia and one son, Rupert a. Mar
tin of Dakota. Mr.. Martin will cone
tinue to make his home here becom-
ing q member of the household of his
daughter, Mrs. Baldwin.
