ralysis last Sunday week, died Satur
day morning 'from the effects of the
stroke. It was hoped the first few
days that she might rally from this at

hier condition grew worse and all hope
of her recovery vanished. Gra'ually
growing weaker she lingered, Lowev

(ease was especially sad because she
laves a husband in a helpless condi

great sufferer for a number of years
from an injured limb. Though the
member was aimputated a few years
ago, this did not relieve the trouble

superintendent of a large Sunday
School at Coronaca and was here in

wants to go to Sunday school. We
heard an editor of a denominational
