Yates; aged 33 years, 1 month and 1 day. While the heart broken husband grieves at the loss of his dear and young companion – and the two motherless little girls weep that “Mamma” does not return – the whole community mourns at the thought that “Manie” is taken from our midst. She had been long and favorably known in this community, and her bright face and cheerful manners, always brought sunshine and gladness wherever she might be. The great concourse of friends who attended her obsequies, was a sure testimonial that she lived in the hearts of the people. And while we drop the sympathizing tear with the bereaved family and long to again enjoy her society, we will also think that “Manie” has entered that sweet and peaceful rest, which awaits those who love and serve the Savior, and calmly awaits His coming.
