A. E. WOOD PASSES Death took from our midst Friday evening at 6 o'clock one of Payette's most beloved women in the person of Mrs. A. E. Wood. As she had been very ill for some time and had been sinking quite rapidly, the end was not unexpected, although the news was received with deep grief by all the older citizens of the community. Since the death of her husband in a railroad accident two and a half years ago she had been bowed with grief and life seemed to hold little of real enjoyment for her. Ever kind and considerate of those about her she lived for others rather than for herself and her death is keenly felt by those closely associated with her. Mrs. Libby G. Wood was borne in Smithfield, Penna., January 15, 1856, and lived in the town of her birth until March 26, 1880 when she moved to Castleton, North Dakota, and from there she came to Payette with her husband and family on March 9, 1898. She and her husband were among the most highly respected citizens of the community, and Payette's loss since both are now gone is great indeed. Funeral services were held at the Christian church Sunday afternoon at 2:00 o'clock and were conducted by Rev. H. E. Mow, her pastor. For a quarter of a century she had been a consistent and faithful member of this church and a large congregation was present to pay their last tribute of respect. She leaves to mourn her loss one son, Clinton Wood, of Yreka, California, and two daughter, Mrs. Jennie Soule, of Los Angeles, California, and Mrs. Edith Harader, of Bozeman, Montana.
