Death of
Mrs. James Henry
Very much sorrow was felt
by a wide circle of friends when the death was announced of Mrs.
James Henry, who passed away at her home here on Thursday of last
week. She had been ill for
several weeks with fever, which a few days before her death
developed into typhoid.
The funeral took place on
Saturday at 2 o'clock, Rev. Mr. Davey conducting the services. The
bearers were Messrs.
H. R. Smale, T. D. Duncombe, A. M. Tobin, John Martin, W. C. Lundy
and C. Kitchen. On Sunday, memorial
services were held in the Methodist church of which
Mrs. Henry was
a faithful member.
Mrs. Henry's maiden name
was Sarah Henderson and she came to Waterford from England about
35 years ago. Henry Henderson, an uncle,
and John, a cousin, reside at Norwich. A husband, son and daughter
are left to mourn her, and to them is extended the sympathy of the
community.
Many beautiful
flowers testified to the esteem in which Mrs. Henry was held,
among them being an anchor from the Ladies' Aid of the Methodist
church, of which she was a member.
