Mrs. Catherine Slye, for many years a resident in Ionia city, passed away 
Sunday evening at about 8:00 o’clock at the home of her son, William Slye, 338

January 14, 1900.

For some time Mrs. Slye has been making her home with her sons, William Slye 
and E.E. Slye, of Kalamazoo. Mrs. Slye has been a most patient sufferer all 
through her long years of illness. She was Grandma Slye to all the children and

William Slye, of this city; Herbert Slye of California; Mrs. Spear, of 
California; Alice DeCator, of Hudsonville; E.E. Slye, of Kalamazoo, and Bertha
