Cecilia Jane Wye, the third
child of James and Ruth Wye, was
born at Kingston, Ont, March 81,
1867, and died Feb. 10, 1921, at
the home of her daughter in De-
troit, aged So years.
She came to Michigan in child
hood with her parents and settled
in Yale. Was married to John G.
Paxton at Perry Sound, Ont, Dec.
%, 1891. To this union were born
five children George, Fred, Mrs.
Nellie Smith, Frank, John E., of
Indiana. Her companion preceded
her in death two years ago. Be-
sides her five children she leaves
three sisters and three brothers
to mourn her loss. All of her
children except the eldest were
with their mother during her last
illness. Mrs. Paxton is the third
one of the family to pass away
in three years.
Funeral services were held from

made in Elmwood cemetery.
Two sisters Of the deceased
were also present at the funeral
services, Mrs. VIM. Size, of Boston
and Mrs. H. l.. Watkins, of Shower.
William II. Phelps, whose death
occurred on Sunday, the 26th of
December, was born in Yale April
22nd, 1880, cause Of death pneu-
monia.
The mother and father, with
Will small baby, moved to AL
pena, where Mr.. Phelps was then
foreman of Potter's lumber camp.
The father died when Will was Ia
years of age and he was left to
care for his mother and eight
small children. The family then
moved back to the farm near Yale
and it was here that he lived the
remainder of his life. He was a
good citizen, standing up for his
country in times of war and in
peace, always thought of others
first and was ready to offer will
ing hand to those who needed
help, and above all he was a duti-
full son and brother.
II, has been a great comfort to
Mrs. Phelps, since the death Of
her dutiful son, in thinking of the
beautiful words Of God spoken by
Rev. Mumby, of the Methodist
Episcopal church, of the music
played by Mia Holden, and how
softly and sweetly can she recall
the voice of Neva Ostrander as it
was lifted up in the song, Lead
Kindly Light"
