She leaves to mourn her loss seven children: Misses Minnie and Grace, of this city; Mrs. George Davis, of Westbrookville, and Mabel Maud, Sadie and George, at home.

We will not mourn for dear Mother.
For we know you are at rest,
With kind and loving hands folded
On your peaceful breast,
No trouble nor sorrow can enter there,
We will try and endure it
But it is a hard shock to bear.
