She was particularly active in the
work of the local Equal Suffrage

eled considerably and at one time
lived in California. Mrs. Brewster
had been living this winter with her
son, Perley Brewster, at New Haven

husband and an aged father survive
her, besides two sisters, Mrs. George
Howe of Orleans and Mrs. Foster of
Newport and one brother, Carl Story
also of Newport. The body was bur-
led at Irasburg, as she was a native
of that town. Friends remembered
this good woman with fine apprecia-
ton of her strong character and re-

tual and well read, broad in her in
terests and progressive in all her
views.
