Grandma Leeper died at the home of her daughter, Mrs. Garmire in Dexter, Thursday morning. She, together with her husband, were pioneer settlers in this township, having lived on the old homestead for more than forty years. Seven years ago, they retired from active farm life and moved to Dexter. Old age and other complications were the immediate course of her death.

Funeral services were held at Penn Center Saturday morning, conducted by Rev. Keast and buried by the side of her husband, who died a few weeks ago.
