vears of oho nnd tho mother of four
sons and two daughters. Sho was un
estimable lady and had many friends
who will unite in oxtondlng sympathy
to tho bereaved family. Tho funeral
was hold at her late residence on Thurs

presido over tho B. & M, havo decided
to remove a portion of tho round houso
at this placo to Oxford, reducing the
houso hero to four stalls. Thoy have
our permission to tako tho whole

oftor tho last vestago of their property
has disappeared wo can got a road to
como in which will appreciate us.
