She was the daughter of A. C. Strachan and wife, and something over a year ago was united in marriage with Frank Burtraw. Funeral services were held at Union church last Sunday afternoon, and it is reported there were 300 teams in the procession, thus testifying to the esteem in which she was held by those who knew her. She attended school here one year, and during that time formed a large circle of friends. At the age of 14 she became converted and ever since has lived a beautiful Christian life, which crowns the other virtues which she possessed.
