Obituary.
It was with much surprise
and sorrow that the people of this neighborhood, and in fact, for
many miles around, heard of the death of Alice, beloved wife of
Edward Blayney, which occurred on Monday, 25 Apr 1910, after only
a few days' illness from meningitis.
The funeral, which took
place from her late home to the Lynnville cemetery and thence to
the Methodist church on Wednesday, was very largely attended by
both friends and relatives. The services were conducted by her
pastor, Rev. A. W. Shepperson, who spoke from Gen. 9, 14.
Of her immediate relatives
there are left to mourn their loss her husband and three children:
Audrey, Clara and Mildred; also four sisters: Mrs. Herbert
Collver,
Mrs. Allan [sic] Chrysler, Mrs. Ed. Meredith and Miss Clara Kellum [sic].
Mrs. Blayney will be
greatly missed in the church and Sunday School, of which she was a
faithful member and regular attendant. We do not sorrow as those
having no hope, for we feel assured that our dear sister has gone
"To be with Christ, which is far better."
