Mrs. Edward T. Booz.
  Ann Mary, wife of Edward T. Booz, fell asleep in Jesus, August 17, at her 
home, 219 South Darlington street, West Chester.  She leaves a devoted husband 
and the following children: Wilmer, of Coatesville; Evia, at home; Ella, of 
Ocean city, N. J., and Abbie, of Philadelphia, and a host of friends.  She was a 
loving and devoted wife and mother.  She was one of those saintly characters who 
are ever ready to get under the burden, and with a faith and hopefulness which 
only communion with God can give, writes one who knew her well.  She was ever 
praying the Savior for sinners who were not on the Lord’s side.  She joined the 
church when young, and spent much time in the uplift of precious souls.  A 
number of years ago, she met with a serious accident, coming home from church, 
from the effects of which she has been a constant sufferer.  Although not able 
to attend church, as are many others, her prayers were always ascending for the 
blessing on it, and she was ever mindful of her friends and neighbors who were 
out of the ark of safety.  She had many answers to her prayers.  She was a 
member of the Westminster Presbyterian Church, and home department of the 
Sabbath School.  She enjoyed her golden wedding anniversary on January 23, 1918.
