She had been ill since last October, when she suffered a stroke of paralysis. Since that time she had been gradually growing weaker. She was a little less than eighty-two yeas of age, and her years were a barrier to her recovery. Mrs. Cole was the widow of the late Charles Cole, who died in Sandy Hill, N.Y., in 1869. Mrs. Cole and her son came to this city in 1894, and had since made their home here, the son being a member of the Warwick & Cole company of this city. Another son died in infancy. The deceased is survived by the son, a niece, Mrs. Daniel S. Griffin of Sandy Hill, and a cousin, Mrs. Orville Beach of this city. There will be funeral services at the residence at two o'clock Wednesday afternoon, Rev. A. M. Ayers of the First Presbyterian church officiating. The remains will leave the city over the Wisconsin Central railway at 7:50 o'clock Thursday morning, and will be taken by Mr. Cole to the old home of his mother for interment.
