Mrs. Mary A. Ruth

Mrs. Mary A. Prizer Ruth, widow of the late Samuel N. Ruth, died in the 
Phoenixville Hospital, aged 84 years 4 months and 11 days.

The deceased had been a great sufferer for a number of years and has been 
practically an invalid for a year.  Her son, who is the only survivor of the 
family, had been taking care of his invalid mother until about nine weeks ago, 
when it was deemed advisable to take her to the hospital. Dropsey set in and 
death was due to a complication of diseases and old age.  Mrs. Ruth was born at 
the Prizer Homestead at Lawrenceville, now Parkersford, on July 12, 1828, and 
when quite a young girl came to Phoenixville.  Mrs. Ruth was a member of the 
Baptist Church and was quite an active worker in the church when younger.  Her 
husband, Samuel N. Ruth, died 35 years ago.  The funeral will be held this 
afternoon at 2 o’clock.
