Mamie is just a scrub-woman gone

Mamie's idea of the truth is somewhat
impaired by her East Side up-bring-

story.

when she is found clinging to Charles

grieved to learn of the passing of

years ago last April and died in
Waterville. A large part of her life
was spent in Somerset County al
though she was married in young wo-
manhood to Frank T. Farrin of Lew
iston and spent her early married
life in that city Owing to Mr.. Far
rims health, it seemed advisable for
him to move to the country and he
accordingly went to Brighton where
he was for many years, proprietor or
the Wesserrunsett Hotel, postmaster,
storekeeper and town clerk He
died four years ago and since his de-
mise the widow has lived with her
daughter, Mrs. Parker Foss in Water
Vile, although she has spent much
time with her other children. She
has been in failing health for three
years and was very grayely i'll last
winter She partially regained her
health however, and was able to come
to Skowhegan to visit her daughters
only a week before she passed away.
Her final illness was of only a half
hours duration Mrs. Farrin was a
devoted mother and had acquired an
unusually large circle of friends in
various parts of the county and state.
In early life she united with the Bap-
fist Church but during her stay in
Waterville had worshipped at the
Congregational Church. She was
also a member of Sunset Chapter O.
e. S. at Skowhegan. She is sur
vived by six children, Mrs. Charles
Decker, Mrs Ernest Decker, both of
Skowhegan. Mrs. John Murray of
Winslow, Thomas Farrin, just now in
Brighton, but who expects to locate
in Skowhegan, Harry Farrin of
Brighton and Mrs. Parker Foss of
Waterville, with whom she lived.
There are also thirteen grandchildren
and a nephew Charles Huntington of
Guiford, whom she cared for from
infancy, until he had grown to man
hood.
Funeral services were held at the
Foss home in Wateryille, Monday
Rev. Mr.. Smith o. the Congregational
Church officiating. The interment
was in the family lot at Pine Grove
Cemetery, Wateryille
