The Portland Review, Tuesday, January 26, 1937

Mrs. Richard Towner, 71, a member of one of the pioneer families of Danby 
township, died Wednesday at the home of a niece, Mrs. Archie Brady.  She had 
been ill with influenza and her husband, also stricken, was at the point of 
death when his wife expired.  Funeral arrangements were delayed a day or so, 
awaiting outcome of Mr. Towner’s illness.

Mrs. Towner’s maiden name was Mary Warner.  She was born in Danby and had 
always resided there.  In March, 1890 she married Mr. Towner and the couple 
resided continuously on the same farm, a little south of Danby cemetery on the 
Mulliken road, until their illness made it necessary to go the home of the 
relative above named.

There are no children and Mrs. Towner had no near relatives.  Mr. Towner is a 
brother of Fred Towner and Mrs. Rose Boughner, of Danby, and Mrs. Alice 
Crowley, of St. Johns.

The remains were taken to the Towner home following her death, where the 
funeral was held Saturday afternoon, Rev. Griffin, of Hoytville, officiating.

Mr. Towner had considerably improved late in the week.
