Mrs. Wilson, wife of Sam Wilson, leaving four very small and loving children, one only four days old. In ???? death of Mrs. Wilson, an affectionate wife and fond mother is forever lost to those to whom she was most endeared. She was a body of whom any community would be proud, kind and neighborly with all whom it was her lot to meet. Her death is mourned by many outside of her immediate family. Her gentle spirit was released from long suffering and transplanted into the realm where the person never suffers. We extend our most heart felt condolence to the grief stricken relatives and ask them to dry their tears, for though the cold, desolate hearth stone around which they have so often sat with the dear departed, may oft bring a sigh and bedim the cheeks with hot scalding tears, still the thoughts that her troubles and suffering are now forever past, and that they will meet her in the sweet bye and bye. And may those darling children which she has left, have all the attention necessary, so in after years memory will produce the most pleasant recollection. Also that Mr. Wilson who is now sick and very low. May he soon be up is the desire of their many friends. C. G. O. Additional Comments: "Tolerant in All Things, Neutral in Nothing" Milner, R.
