W G Young came up from Hiawatha Kan., Wednesday morning on account of the serious illness of his mother.

Died -Sunday evening, Feb 14. Mrs. G W Avery. The remains were taken, Tuesday morning to Pewaukee Wisconsin for interment.

  Mrs. Avery has been an invalid for a number of years, being confined to the home the most of the time. About a year ago Mr. Avery took her to Saloam Springs, Ark with the hope improving her health, which was apparently done for the time, but it was only temporary. After coming home she was unable to go out, and the lamp of life gradually went out although everything that loving hands could do was done to prolong life.

  Mrs. Avery was born in the city of New York in 1843, and when a child her parents moved to Wisconsin where she grew to womanhood. In 1884 she came to Spring Ranch to reside, was married to Mr. Avery Sept 24 1885.
