ing just at dawn of day, and, while
the sad news was not unexpected,
the announcement cast a gloom
over the entire community.
Mrs. Stephenson had been in i'll
health for more than a year, her
symptoms growing more alarming
a few weeks ago, and day by day
loving friends watched, ministered
and prayed as the bright young
life ebbed away. ,~,
Mrs. Stephenson Nas. the only
daughter and younges; child of Mr..
and Mrs. G, J. Hiner, vas born and
reared in Monterey, and although
she had reached the age of 30, to
many of her life long friends she
was still "Elsie," the little girl
whose bright face and sunny dis
position endeared her 10 every one.

In strange contrast to her cheer
full nature, Mrs Stephenson grew
respondent early in her illness and
seemed to have premon.tion of
the fatal issue. Ter two little
girls, Jessie and jean, the latter
a mere babe, were her chief concern
and with calm precision and moth
erly so!icitude she committed them
to the love and care of relatives,
then awaited with christian leslg-
nation the call of the Master, At
the early age of ten years she had
protested living faith and joined
the Methodist church, transferring
her membership a few years ago to
the Presbyterian church at Pisgah.
Surviving here are, among immed
late relatives, her young husband
and two little daughters, her aged
father and mother and two brothers,
al of whom have been assured of
he deepest, most sincere sympathy:
Funeral services were conducted
at the Methodist church Monday
morning at eleven O'Clock, Rev. n
A. Parker being in charge OF the
same, and, in spite of unfavorable
weather, the large edifce was
crowded to it's utmost capacity.
The floral tribute was both beau
tiful and profuse, and was d Silent
tribute of love and esteem.
At the close of the impressive
service, the remains were inferred
in Monterey cemetery, the follow
