THE SILENT REAPER.
LYON
The sad and shocking news came to Mr. and Mrs. L. F. Button, late Friday afternoon, of the death of her mother, Mrs. Lyon of Rockford. But a few weeks before Mrs. Button made a visit at her parental home and then her mother was in usual health. A stroke of paralysis is stated as the cause of death. Mrs. Button went to Rockford Friday night and was joined Sunday by her husband. The funeral was held Monday afternoon. During a number of visits in Decorah Mrs. Lyon made the acquaintance of many of her daughter’s friends, all of whom join in extending sympathy and condolence.

Transcriber’s Note: Find-a-Grave shows this was Belle Alden who was born August 8, 1833 and died October 26, 1905. She is buried in Riverside Cemetery.
