The many friends of Mrs. Sarah H. Smith were greatly shocked to hear she
had passed away on the morning of Feb. 22. She had only been confined to
her bed since the Friday before.

Mrs. Smith was born in Paxton, Mass., and had she lived until the second of
next month, would have been seventy-four years old. She has resided in
Evansville thirty-eight years and was loved by all who knew her. She has
lived with her daughter, Mrs. Warren Saunders, ever since the death of her
husband, eleven years ago. She leaves one other daughter, Mrs. John Balfe
of Janesville. Both will deeply mourn the loss of a kind and loving mother.

She is also survived by two sisters, Mrs. Josephine Lumbus of Hodson, Ia.,
and Mrs. Ellen Sisson of Dakota, two half sisters, Mrs. Marcia Jorden of
Albion and Mrs. Grave Knox of Belleville; three brothers, John S., of
Brookings, S. D., Jason S. of Laurel, Neb., and James S. of La Porte, Ia.,
and one half brother Moses of Dayton. She also leaves seven grandchildren
and seven great grandchildren.

The funeral services were held from the residence of Mr. and Mrs. Warren
Saunders, Thursday afternoon at two o'clock, Rev. D. Q. Grabill
officiating. The floral offerings were many and beautiful.
