famous Ravine House. There she
lived her childhood days, a quiet
warm hearted. sunny girl. ossessed
of spirit of self forgetfulnes5 and
sympathy that ever kept possession of
the love not only Of her family but Of
all her associates. In her early wo-
manhood she married Sidney M.
Brown. With the exception OF few
years. she lived her married life in
the Randolph Valley among the
friends and amid the scenes CT her
childhood
On Friday as she lay in the parlor
at Coldbrook Lodge among banks OF
flowers in the dignity and beauty of
eternal rest triumphant over long
physical suffering, at the head Of the
casket, rested a floral pillow inscribed
Mother. an expression OF the filial
devotion of five sons and a daughter.
