OF GODERICH TP., GOES TO
HER LONG ROME .
There passed away at the home of
her son, Mr. Benjamin Rathwell, lot
25, Bayfield line, Goderich township,
on Friday, Dec. 3011, after an illness
of only two Tel's, an esteemed reels
dent of the community in the person
of Eliza Jane Chambers, widow` of the
late Samuel Rothwell,
Mrs. Rathwell was born in Lurgan,
County Down, Ireland, in 1843 and.
was left an orphan at the age of two.
She came to Canada with her broth-
er and sister at the age of seven,
coming to the home of, an uncle, the
late William 'Wells, who lived on the
farm now owned by Mr. James Reid
on the Front Road, Stanley township,
where she made her home until she
was married to the late Samuel Rath -
well in 1862.She came as .a bride to
her home at lot 25, where she con-
tinued to live until her' death, sixty-
five years later.
To Mr, and Mrs, Rathwell were
born a family of nine children, seven
of "whom still remain to mourn the .i
loss' of a good, 'mother.. They are:
Mks:' A, B. Stephenson, Hyde Park,
Ont.; Mrs. Mary. Sparling, Brussels;
John Rothwell, Vai'iia; Samuel Rath-
well, Waterford; Mrs. Fenwick Stew-
art, Stanley; Benjamin Rathwell on
the old homestead- and Mrs. H. P.
Pluntateel, ,Clinton. - Mis, Annie Bea-
com, Clinton,' and Mrs. John . McKay,
Wolfe, Sask,, passed on several years
ago, stir, Rathwell died sixteen yeers
ago.. ,
' Mrs, Rathwell lived to see her fam-
ily 'grow
aun-ily'grow to; manhood and womanhood,
to settle in homes of their own ` and,
rear families around them, She had
forty-six. ,grandchildren and fourteen
great-grandchildren. She was a wo-
man of exceptional; qualities and re-
resumed
e-iio red for her generous hospitality
and her warm:; friendliness. As she.
grew in years she was sincerely loved
by an ever -widening circle of rela-
tives and friends. She kept her fac-
ulties to the end and having a fund of,
stories of pioneer dayswas a most in-
teresting conversationalist. She was
a'. great reader, too, and keeping
abreast of the times, could discuss the
current events bf the day intelligently
up to the last. She had never worn
glasses and was able to read the fin-
est print. Site kept up a correspond-
ence with all her children and grand-
children who livedat a distance, be-
sides a host of other friends. "Grand-
ma's" passing -will letree a sad gap in
the family circle.

member of the Methodist Church, in
earlier years being a member of
"Coles"' chureh,-latterly of Varna
Methodist,: now United church.*

ment was' trade in Bayfield cemetery.
