Notes:

Died:
This estimable lady died on Thursday morning at the residence of her son-in-law, Judge C. S. Longcope, of this city, and her remains were started on the Central train, attended by members of her family, to be interred at the family burial grounds in La Grange.

This excellent lady had attained a nice old age, and had raised a large family and seen them all married and comfortably settled in life.

So much was she beloved amoung a large circle of friends in this city and at La Grange, where she resided for many years, that she was universally spoken to and of by the name of "Mother McAshan".

A consistent, unflinching Christian all her life, death to her was but the gate to Heaven and an eternity of happiness. She had done her whole duty to her children, and they and their descendants will always bless her sacred memory.
