MRS. HENRY C. McDUFEE.

Mrs Rosa B McDuffee, widow of
Henry c McDuffee, died at the home
of Fred McDuffee, Tuesday afternoon.
Had she lived until the eighth of
July, she would have been eighty-one
years Old Several years ago, she
had a shock from which she partial
ly recovered, but for the past two
years her bodily heath has steadily
failed. Last summer, she spent in
her home, but in the fall, she was
taken to the Cottage Hospital at
Woodsvil'e as she needed more care
than could be provided in her own
home. About two months ago, she
was brought to the home of Fred Nc
Duffee, where Miss Kate Demeritt
has devoted herself to her comfort,
every slightest wish being gratifed,
if possible, so her life went out
comfortably and happily in the town
where she made her home for so
many years She was a woman of
culture and refinement, gentle in
disposition and earnest in her efforts
to i've a useful life. She leaves one
son, Ernest B of New York who
arrived here on Tuesday, and one
sister, Mrs r M Harvey, of Mont
pelier, with whom she made her
home for several years after her
husbands death.
The funeral was held in the Saw
