Mrs. Minnie (McDonald) Baker   

 

 

In Grafton, Neb., Feb. 1, of consumption, Minnie, 25, wife of J. W. Baker (Amidon) of Tiskilwa, and daughter of J. B. McDonald, a former resident of Henry.

 

Our death column chronicles the name of Mrs. J. W. Baker of Tiskilwa with those who have gone to the unseen world.  She was formerly of Henry, and for some years an inmate of Alderman Snyder's family. 

 

She was a daughter of J. B. McDonald, who now lives in Grafton, Nebraska.  She had been an invalid for some years, and not long ago it was thought advisable for her to visit her friends in Nebraska, with a faint hope that it might benefit her.  There she lingered and finally bid adieu to the earth earthly. 

 

Thus a very companionable lady, lovable wife and daughter, has put on immortality.
