Belding Banner, 27 Dec 1906

Sarah Benedict died Thursday Dec. 20, at her home at Cook’s corners, aged 71
years.  She was one of the pioneers of the township, coming to Cook’s corners in
a very early day and after the death of her first husband, Mr. Gage she married
Calvin Benedict who also died a number of years ago.  She was a sister of
Maremus Boss and lived near his home.  The funeral was held Sunday.  An old
friend of the family, M.L. Howe of Orleans officiated at the service. 

She lived alone at her late homestead.  Always a familiar figure in our midst,
many a one left behind can tell of her kindness and skillful nursing through
sickness.

She was apparently in her usual health until the day before she died, when
slight complaints ended in unconsciousness and she quietly passed away about
five o’clock Thursday night.
