From the Alton Democrat of Feb 20, 1897 Boyden News.
A sad and sudden death occurred at the home of Mr. Carden (Cardin), four miles east of Boyden last week, as a loving wife and mother was called to rest
from the place where it would seem she could but ill be spared. The funeral was held Friday. The sympathy of the entire community is
with the bereaved husband and children.
