              GONE TO REST UP THERE
              
              From her home in this city March 29th, in the
            fifty sixth year of her age ELLEN C. beloved wife
            of Hon. CHAS. E. RESSEGUIE after a painful illness.
              Her suffering had been very great for nearly
            three months, though disease had been approaching
            for more than a year past. Gradually wasting before
            its advance, she remained cheerful and uncomplaining.
            Her life and all pervailing christian influence 
            seemed typified in the fragrance of the flowers she
            so much loved. Earnest in all good works, given to
            hospitality, and abundant in charity, she was strong
            in her conviction and firmly adhered to the right.
              The home she made beautiful is left sombre and
            desolate. Her husband and relatives are indeed bereft.
            The church of which she was so devout and faithful a
            member deplore her untimely death. Her place in the
            community will long be unfilled. The funeral took
            place Monday at the Congregational church, conducted
            by their pastor Rev. R. M. KEYES, assisted by Rev.
            S. N. HILL. A large assembly of true mourners and
            friends filled the house.
              The chancel had been set with banks of beautiful
            plants and flowers, the coffin was covered with choice
            wreaths and floral designs, all emblematic of the
            fragrance and purity of the life gone back to the
            Giver.
