Frye, Annie

  Mrs. Annie Frye, wife of I. W. Frye died at her home in Salisbury, March 20 
from the effects of severe burns she received several weeks ago. She suffered 
untold torture until death finally released her from her misery. Deceased was 
aged 67 years, 2 months and 6 days. Mrs. Frye's maiden name was Annie Johnson. 
She was married four times, her first husband being a Mr. Patterson of 
Philadelphia who died several years after their marriage. She was then wedded to 
George Speicher, then to George Brown and last to Mr. Frye who survives her. 
Funeral services were held at the house on Monday afternoon, Rev. George Yoder, 
her pastor officiating. Interment took place beside that of her first husband at 
Grantsville, Md., this being her request. The following children live to mourn 
the departure of a most noble mother: Joseph Patterson, Mrs. Frank Knecht, and 
Mrs. Wm. Frye. A sister Mrs. Folk and four brothers also survive her - John and 
Baker Johnson, of Grantsville and Joseph Edward Durst, being half-brothers.
