Died

SLAWSON – Sally L. Ackley; widow of Smith Slawson, departed this life February 5, 1896, at her home near Florenceville, Iowa.

Mrs. Slawson was born January 6th 1926 in Onodaga county New York, and was united in marriage December 13, 1847. They moved to Howard county, Iowa, in the fall of 1865.

Six children blessed this happy union, all of whom with the husband and father preceeded her home, excepting one son, Mr. Eben Slawson, who is left to mourn the severe loss of a fond mother’s sympathetic heart.

Though a sufferer for some time the end came sudden and unexpected. Her remains were laid to rest by the side of her husband in the home cemetery. The funeral services were held at the church and conducted by the pastor. A large concourse of friends and neighbors followed her to her last resting place.
