As a va- lued member of the Sewing Circle and Women's Institute, we would like to pay her tribute in the fol- lowing lines, inadequate as they may be: Dear faithful member, you have left us, And passed on to your eternal abode; Your illness was long and tedious, Your courage and fortitude rare. Many years you were a staunch adherent Of the Staffa Women's Institute; Cheerfully bearing your share of the burdens That such a society often exacts. We will miss your musical talents, Iu our meetings month by month, And long for your sunny presence At the District Annuals. But we trust you are happy in Heaven, Away from the world and its cares, Where the weary rest from their; labors, And sorrow and pain are unknown.

She was laid to rest in Roys cemetery, Fullerton Twp., the following Fri- day. To her bereaved family we extend sincere sympathy. As a va- lued member of the Sewing Circle and Women's Institute, we would like to pay her tribute in the fol- lowing lines, inadequate as they may be: Dear faithful member, you have left us, And passed on to your eternal abode; Your illness was long and tedious, Your courage and fortitude rare. Many years you were a staunch adherent Of the Staffa Women's Institute; Cheerfully bearing your share of the burdens That such a society often exacts. We will miss your musical talents, Iu our meetings month by month, And long for your sunny presence At the District Annuals. But we trust you are happy in Heaven, Away from the world and its cares, Where the weary rest from their; labors, And sorrow and pain are unknown.
