MARTHA E. TWOMBLY
Martha E. Twombly passed away
at her home on June 10Th at the age
of 80 years, after an illness of sew
eral weeks Mrs. Twombly was born
/ in Barton December 80, 1S41, and
was the daughter of Cyrus and Mar
garet (Higgins) Heath. During her
girlhood Mrs. Twombly taught school
in Evansville and in 1860 married An
drew j. Twombly, and shortly after
their marriage they moved to Athens,
Ohio, where their only child, Jennie,
now Mrs. VIM. R. Devereaux, was
born to them. After spending a
number of years here they returned
! to Barton and the remainder of Mrs.
/, Twombly's long and useful life was
spent in this and neighboring towns.
Early in her life Mrs. Twombly
united with the Methodist church and
for many years was regular attend
ant at the service. Even in later life
when she found it difficult to walk
| to the services she still maintained
a great interest in the welfare of her
church and always contributed will
| ingly to the various causes in which
her help was solicited. Mrs. Twom-
bly, was widely known in this vicinity
and was loved and respected by all
who knew her. Her life was devoted
/ to kindly deeds, and perhaps this
spirit of kindness and consideration
which she manifested for others ac-
counts for the great number OF
friends with whom she was blessed
and for the affection which they felt
for her. > The funeral services were

That she is dead-she is just away.
With a cherry smile and a wave OF

She has wandered into an unknown
land.
And you, o you who the widest Year,
For the old time step and the glad

She is not dead-she is just away.
