She was married to Mr. Lindley when 19 years of age, and they bought the 80-acre from that has been their home for nearly forty years. Last November they rented their farm, at the earnest solicitation of their children, agreeing to stop hard work and take life easier. They then went to Ionia to live with a son, agreeing to remain there a year and then if they could stand being away from the old home they would buy a place and make that their permanent home. Mrs. Lindley had been sick but a few days, before seemingly enjoying good health.
