Died-at the family residence, near this city, on Wednesday evening, Nov. 6, 1805 [1895], Mary E., wife of James Mitchell, aged 48 years, 10 months and 17 days. Mary E. Hoard was born in Ohio Dec. 20, 1846. She was married to Jas. Mitchell 32 years ago, and was the mother of one son, Arthur B. For a number of years, Mrs. Mitchell has been in poor health, being at times a great sufferer from rheumatism, but she bore it all with Christian fortitude. About 12 years ago she experienced religion, and has since been a consistent follower of her Savior. Her last illness was of short duration and it was not thought the end was so near; but the disease took a fatal turn, and after hours of intense pain, she passed away as above stated. In her death the community has lost a kind hearted and sympathetic friend and neighbor, always ready to lend a helping hand in case of sickness or trouble. The funeral was held from the M.E. Church Saturday afternoon, the services being conducted by the pastor, and the remains tenderly laid to rest in the Albany cemetery. Her husband, son and aged father, with many other relatives, are left to mourn their loss.

Mary married James Mitchell about 1863. [Group Sheet]
