About two o'clock Saturday
morning September 17, Mrs. Sam-
mel Johnson, of north Greeley was
seized by a fatal illness. By sun-
rise death had fin(i)shed his dark
work, and the skill of man stood
baffled and awed while Death gloat-
ed over his victory. The autumn
sunset left her happy in life. The
rosy morning found her cold in
death. Funeral services were con-
ducted by the minister from North
Branch in the Greeley center
church at one o'clock on the follow-
ing Sabeath. The remains were
laid to rest in the Exira cemetery.Like snowflakes falling on the sea
One by one we melt away,
No more the dusty earth to roam-
Wanderer called by Jesus, home.Note: Parents of Lucy A. England were Luther England and Susan Wilson. She was married 1st to Isaac F. Boyer and married 2nd to Samuel Johnston.
