TWO weeks ago she suffered an attack of partial paralysis which, her en- feebled condition was unable to with- stand and she sank rapidly, death coming as a happy release from suf- fering. The deceased was a daughter of the late Mr. and Mrs. William Sproat, and was born on the Sproat homestead on the Kipgen Road, Tuck- ersmith, in 1860, where she resided until her marriage with Mr. John Thompson, in 1877, when she went to McKillop. Mr. Thompson died in 1892 and three years later she was united in marriage to Dr. R. E. Cooper. i Shortly after her second marriage she purchased the home in Seaforth where she continued to reside until her death. She was a woman of very quiet, unassuming manner, who pos- sessed the love of her friends and Ienjoyed the esteem of all who had the privilege of her acquaintance. In re- ligion Mrs.Cooper was a Presbyterian land she took a great interest in the Women's Missionary Society and Ladies' Aid of First Presbyterian Church, of which church she was a most liberal supporter, and while health permitted a regular attendant. Besides her husband she is survived by a family of one son and one dau- ghter by her first marriage, Mr. J. W. Thompson and Miss C. E. Thompson, of McKillop. She is also survived by three brothers and two sisters, Mrs. Mundell, of Ototoks, Alberta; Mrs. Hicks, of Crystal City, Manitoba, and Mr.William Sproat, of Virden; George of Delia, Alberta, and John, of Kip- ling, Sask., all of whom were with her when she passed away, except Mr. George Sproat.
