Death has invaded another happy home and wrought its work of desolation. On the 24th the grim messenger summoned from earth and loved ones Mrs. Mary J. Sires, wife of Daniel Sires, of Union City Township, in the 33rd year of her age. Mrs. Sires had been in feeble health for some time, suffering from consumption. She was a daughter of Mr. Thomas Lusk of Union City. Deceased leaves a husband and two children, 5 and 9 year old boys, and a large circle of friends to mourn the loss of a faithful wife, fond mother and true friend.
