Mrs. Swick is dead, a sweet and noble woman falls peacefully asleep.

Humphrey of Springwater NY. Her father and mother also reside at Springwater, and the former may be present.

She was a devout member of the Methodist Episcopal church and crossed the river with peace in her soul and in the calm faith that has been her life’s guide and strength. She will be sincerely missed by many friends and heartfelt sympathy will go out to the bereaved family.

Arrangements for the funeral will be announced tomorrow.
