The death occured Sunday morning at the Ward residence following an illness of long standing.

The deceased was the wife of Alfred Penney of Naches City, and leaves a family of seven children, all of whom were in attendance at the funeral. The five daughters are Mrs. Grace Durant of Sumner, Iowa; Mrs Viette Allen, Mrs. Jessie Schoonover and Miss Florence Penney of Naches City and Mrs. Mabel Ward of North Yakima.
