Beloved Lady Passes Away.  Mrs. Benjamin F. Mosher Called to her Reward Last 
Sunday Morning After an Illness Lasting a number of Weeks.  Funeral 
Yesterday.  Was Pioneer of Eastern Ionia County.

We were saddened to learn Sunday morning of the demise of Mrs. B. F. Mosher at 
her home in this village, death being due to a stroke of paralysis, which she 
suffered last fall, old age preventing her from rallying from the shock.  She 
had been unable to leave her bed during all those weary weeks and gradually 
grew weaker day by day until the end came, just as she had often desired, 
peaceful and without pain.  The funeral services were held Thursday afternoon 
from the Baptist church, interment being made by the side of her husband in 
the Westside cemetery.

Miss Mary Almary Dietz was born in Wayne County, N. Y., December 8, 1827, and 
passed away at her home in Pewamo, Michigan, Sunday, February 15, 1914, in her 
87th year.  She came with her parents to Michigan in 1845 and settled in what 
is known as the Goose Creek neighborhood, between Lyons and Portland, being 
among the earliest settlers of eastern Ionia County.  In 1847 she was united 
in marriage to Benjamin F. Mosher and to this union were born four daughters, 
two of whom survive; Mrs. George Vance and Mrs. Chet Searing both of Lyons.
