Mrs. Emma Gardner died suddenly of Angina Pectoris at her home in Muir 
Thursday morning, June 10, at the age of 88 years. She was born in Conessus, 
New York, on March 16, 1849, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. John White, and in the

far as Lyons; she came with her parents to live there. She was one of the 
few civil war widows left in this vicinity. Her husband was William Gardner, 
civil war veteran. 

She leaves two sons, Harry of Lyons and Perry of Eight Points lake; four 
daughters, Mrs. Charles White of New York city, Mrs. Cora Hendrickson of 
Muir, Mrs. Helen Walker of Lansing and Mrs. Edith Hendrickson of Muir the 
mother having lived with the latter for the past two years; six

years during his boyhood, Ruth Hendrickson, of Muir, Miss Elaine Gardner of 
Lyons, and Robert, William and John Walker of Lansing; one brother, Adelbert
