HOSKINS Payette residents in general were shocked on Sunday morning to learn that Mrs. George Hoskins had passed away at her home in Boise. Mrs. Hoskins lived for a number of years in Payette where she was known as an active church member and had a host of friends. Since last November she had suffered from neuralgia of the heart and for a time her friends in Payette had known she was ill but had not thought she was in a serious condition and consequently her death came as a distinct shock in this city. Mrs. Hoskins was quite well known over the state of Idaho as she had served as president of both the Woman's Relief Corps and the Ladies of the G.A.R. She was born in Racine, Wis., 68 years ago. Her maiden name was Mary A. Crowther. She leaves to mourn her loss a husband, George Hoskins; who is assistant adjutant general of the G.A.R., a brother Frank Crowther, of Payette; and one grand daughter, Mrs. A. Kaessner of Fruitland. Short funeral services presided over by Rev. Haley, formerly the pastor of the M.E. church in this city at a time when Mrs. Hoskins was one of its most active members were held at Schreiber & (unreadable) chapel in Boise on Monday afternoon. On Tuesday morning the remains were brought to Payette and at ten a.m. at the Methodist church with Rev. Howarth officiating the last sad tribute was paid to this well known and loved woman by her Payette friends and interment was made in Riverside cemetery the Ladies of the Relief Corps having charge at the grave.
