Mrs. Colson
 
Last Tuesday morning just after breakfast Grandma Colson, who has been making 
her home with her daughter, Mrs. Geo York, for the past year or more, suddenly 
sank into an unconscious state, from which she never rallied.  Members of her 
family were all hastily summoned and were constantly at her bedside until the 
end, which came late Tuesday evening.  She was in her usual spirits at 
breakfast and this sudden change was entirely unlooked for.
 
The funeral was held at the M. E. Church Thursday afternoon at 2 o'clock 
conducted by Rev. Baker and she was laid away in the Salubria cemetery.
 
Miss Margaret Taylor was born near Dayton Ohio in 1831 and was past 81 years 
of age.  She was married to James Colson in 1856 at Oskaloosa Iowa and came to 
Idaho in 1864 and settled in Boise basin.  In 1868 they came to Salubria and 
have made their home here ever since.  Grandma Colson has lived a long and 
useful life and her memory will live in the minds and the hearts of all those 
who knew her.  She leaves a husband, four sons and two daughters.
 
Note:  According to the Idaho Death Index, Margaret Colson was born 10-13-1831 
and died 4-16-1912.  ch
