rc..#@ ." Mrs. Van Dd1en.
The people of this vicinity were
much shocked and sorry TO hear of the
death of Mrs. Garrett Van Dalen
which occurred Saturday. Novenlbe1
&c, from weakness following an attack
of bronchial pneumonia.
Deceased, whose maiden name was
Grace Rock, was born in Holland,
April 30, 1870. On May 6, 1892, she
was united in marriage to Garrett
Van Dalen and the following fall,
November IL, 1892, Mr.. and Mrs. Van
Dalen emigrated to America: To this
happy union nine children were born
Peter, Cora, Mrs. Llama Pluinaer, An
ma, John. Jennie, Rose, Henry and
Grace.
A little more than a week preceding
her death she became i'll and doctor
was summoned, who pronounced her
ailment bronchial pneumonia. Al
though everything that could possibly
be done to eliminate suffering was
duly administered, yet it was of no
avail. The pneumonia crisis was
safely passed, but she was SO weak
ened that it was impossible for her to
regain her strength. She knew the
end was nigh and called each Of her
loved ones to her bedside, where she
bid them loving farewell, and on
Saturday morning at $40 she peace
fully fell asleep in the arms of her
beloved Savior. She leaves to mourn
her departure a devoted husband,
three sons, six daughters, five grand
children and one sister, Mrs. D.
Schultz, besides several other rela-
tives, all Of Pease, and a host of
friends.
The funeral, which was held We'd
nesday afternoon at the home, was
conducted by the elders of the Dutch
Christian Reformed church, of which
she was faithful attendant. The re-
mains were inferred in the Pease GEM
etery.
We join in extending our sympathy
and pray God to strengthen and give
consolation to the bereaved family
and relatives in their hour of sorrow.
