MARY HALL

     The populace of this section was called upon last Friday to pay the last sad rites to the memory of Mrs. Mary Hall, who died on the event of the first last. For several years past, Grandma Hall has made her home with her son, Don Hall, who resides on the old homestead settled by the deceased’s husband, William, 39 year ago. On a portion of this land is located the Hall Cemetery, and it was here that her remains were laid to rest on Friday afternoon after funeral services at the house. The deceased had a few weeks previous met with an accidental fall, heretofore mentioned in these items, which while not serious at the time, doubtless together with the natural decline incident to old age, had a helping had in severing the brittle thread.
