NOBLE WOMAN LAYS DOWN BURDEN

Mrs. Anderson Rests From Earthly Labor

The community was covered with a cloud of gloom this week when the news broke 
out announcing the death of Mrs. Anderson at the home of her son W. B. in this 
city on Tuesday evening, January 20th, at the age of about 64 years. The 
funeral services were held from the W. B. Anderson residence on Thursday 
afternoon at two o'clock, and were largely attended, Rev. H. F. Knight, former 
pastor of the Congregational church at this place, conducted the services. The 
deceased was a member of that church at the time of her death.

The subject of this sketch, Minnie E. Waugh was born in East Craftsburg, 
Vermont on March 5th, 1956 and on March 6th, 1878 was united in marriage to 
George H. Anderson at Greensborough, Vt. This union resulted in the birth of 
four sons and one daughter, all of the children residing in this section of 
the west. Homer lives at Ontario, and is an employee of the O.S.L.R.R. 
operating on the Vale branch; Clyde B. lives at Glenns Ferry and is an 
engineer on the same R. R.; William B. and Perly W. both reside here and the 
one daughter, Mrs. Florence Blayden, lives on a ranch northeast of town. 
Deceased also leaves a sister, Mrs. A. S. Colton of Danvers, Mass.

Mr. Anderson died in 1893. All that was earthly of this noble woman, wife, 
mother and friend was laid quietly to rest in Park View cemetery, and this 
gently falling snow covers her couch with a purity emblematic of her useful 
and active life.
