The True Northerner
Paw Paw, MI
April 17, 1889

        MRS. ANNIE GARDNER, aged thirty-two, was found dead in bed at
      Harrisville. Five years ago she was a happy wife and the mother
      of two bright boys. She then lived with her husband in Toronto.
      An estrangement occurred and one night the husband took the two
      boys and came to this State. The distracted wife and mother fol-
      lowed, and after a weary search located him near Green Bush, six
      miles south of Harrisville. MRS. GARDNER went by steamer to Harris-
      ville but her husband learned of her arrival and at once fled to
      Saginaw, where the two boys died. The mother followed her husband
      to Saginaw, only to learn of the death of her two boys and that
      the father had buried them in an obscure spot. She found their
      grave after long search, and had the remains exhumed and buried
      in a cemetery. Then the heart-broken mother returned to Harris-
      ville, where her sad story gained her shelter and friends. She
      was still young, but care and sorrow had whitened her hair, and
      her bowed form seemed more like that of a person far advanced
      in life than of a woman of her years.
