Obituary

The many friends of Mrs. H. N. Vanderburgh will learn with regret of her death on 1 Mar 1900.

Her maiden name was Elvira Robinson, she being the eldest daughter of Mr. and Mrs. James Robinson.

Mrs. Vanderburgh was well known in this vicinity, having spent her whole life, with the exception of seven years, in this county.

From the ages of 16 to 23 she taught school, at the end of which time she married Mr. H. N. Vanderburgh.

She was a devoted wife and mother and her wise counsel and cheering words will be much missed by the family.

She leaves behind a husband, two sons, 
W. A. Vanderburgh of Marquette, Michigan and 
Jas. N. Vanderburgh of Spokane, Washington, 
and a daughter, Isabel V. Vanderburgh.
