On Tuesday
evening of last week a joyful group of family and friends spent the
evening at the residence of
Mrs. William Church, who bad been in ill
health for some time, but seemed to be on the road to recovery.
As the guests were about to
depart she playfully remarked that in the morning she would get up and
do the washing.
All were well pleased with her
prospects of rapid [convalescence], but ere the morning dawned the
Angel of Death began feeling for her heart strings,
and about 8 a.m.
snapt [sic] them asunder.
A
husband and two little children, mere babies,
were left to mourn her
unexpected death.
She
was buried on Friday in Greenwood Cemetery
