Feb. 7, 1891, P5C3 Mr. Joseph Shaw, who with his wife were for many years residents of this place, and highly esteemed by all who knew them, is expected to reach Friendship this [Thursday] afternoon, with the remains of Mrs. Shaw for interment in Mount Repose Cemetery. Mrs. Shaw died last summer at Hope in North Dakota, to which place the family moved a few years ago. An account of her death and the funeral obsequies, taken from the 'Hope Pioneer', was published in this paper at the time. While residing here Mr. and Mrs. Shaw buried a little daughter in the Cemetery here, and it was the mother's request that her remains might be laid finally to rest beside those of her dead child.
