OBITUARY. Mrs. Alice ROW died of chronic bronchitis and general debility, on Tuesday, March 27, 1894, at 9 o'clock a.m., aged 80 years, 2 months and 27 days.

She was born in Manea, Cambridgeshire, England, Jan. 1, 1814. Came with her husband to America in 1848; resided 4 years in Columbia Co., Wisconsin; moved from there to near Lansing, Allamakee Co., Iowa, in 1852, in which county and state she has resided ever since.

Funeral at M.E. church, on Thursday, at 3 p.m. Burial on Friday, March 31, at Mount Hope cemetery, this county.

Mrs. ROW was the wife of our well known and respected townsman, Jas. ROW, to whom we extend our heartfelt sympathy in his great bereavement. As he has no children on which to lean in his declining years the world will be dark and cheerless to him for the balance of the journey. May a power greater than man's sustain him to the end.
