  	Mrs. Emily Mabie Avery, daughter of Ambrose S. and Sarah A. Mabie, found rest at the homestead the 12th of November, 1902, after suffering a stroke of apoplexy. Her birth was chronicled November 26, 1856, at Mycenae, N. Y. The devoted love of parents and sisters made her childhood a very happy one. The days came and went and she sought higher education, becoming a graduate of Houghton Seminary of Clinton, N. Y. Not many months after, she was united in marriage to Allen H. Avery, Jr., of Manlius, N. Y , who survives her. The crowning quality of Mrs. Avery's character, was her unselfishness. She lived to make glad the hearts of others. She had a brave, cheery way with her, and there was no one who came within the charmed circle of her acquaintance but who was made better. Her gentle ministry to the sick and suffering will not soon be forgotten. She loved her friends with an undying love, and her memory will be cherished in grateful hearts. The last sad services were held at the home November 15th at two p. m., conducted by Rev. J. Mac L. Richardson of the Presbyterian church. He spoke tenderly of the departed and voiced the thought of every one present, while with warm, sympathetic words he commended the sorrowing ones to the dear Father in Heaven. Then were our hearts lifted on the waves of song to the "Holy City," and to the blessed companionship of the redeemed. The offering of many flowers showed the love and esteem in which the dear one was held. We bore her away to the quiet resting place—the Oakwood of Chittenango—and we hushed our sorrow while the Master's own words were given : "Let not your heart be troubled, in my Father's house are many mansions, I go to prepare a place for you." What could have been more comforting ? Mrs. Avery leaves, besides a father and mother, three sisters : Miss Anna Mabie, Mrs. S. E Avery of Syracuse, and Mrs. Cyrus L. Tremper of Brooklyn. The sympathy of a large circle of friends is extended to the family, around whom the shadows have so closely gathered
