Again death has entered the home
/ o + Charles McCaulcy. The candle OF
life has burned itself out; a useful
life has ended, and the spirit of Annie
Lloyd McCaulcy has entered into that
realm Of everlasting life and happi-
ness. Annie Lloyd was the daughter
of Robert and Annie Lathrum)
Lloyd and was born in the city of
New York, Nov. II, 1874, where she
passed her early life. In 1865 she
was married to James McCaulcy and
began the BODYBUILDING in her ma
tive city. After Il few years they
moved to Sherbrooke, 7. G., Can
ada, and later to Dixville, p. G.,
where they lived until about 20 years
TO that part Of the city of Newport
known as W. Derby which place has
been her home since, excepting short
periods spent with her children else
where, since the death of her hus-
band which occurred few years
ago. Early last fall she came to spend
the winter with her son, Charles II.
McCaulcy. A short time ago she
was stricken with paralysis and on
January % entered into that rest that
is promised those who serve Him.
The funeral was held the following

fist church, officiating, comforting the
afflicted family and sorrowing friends
with helpful and inspiring messages
from the Word of the One that doeth
all things well. A large floral offer
