Death of Mrs. Royston
Mrs Nancy Royston, the late widow of Mr. Radcliffe Royston, was born in Yorkshire, England, June 1st, 1823. She came to Mineral Point with her husband and two daughters 47 years ago, and here she remained a resident to the hour of her death, which occurred at 8 o'clock last Saturday morning, Nov. 7th. Seven weeks ago she took a severe cold, from which she never recovered. She was a sincere and loving wife, mother, and grandmother and was beloved by all who knew her. There are left to mourn her death two daughters, Mrs. R.C. Libby and Mrs. Norman Wright; five grandchildren and six great grandchildren. The funeral was conducted from her late residence Monday afternoon, Rev W.W. Hurd officiating and the male quartet, consisting of Messrs. Williams, Lewis, Martin and Hughes, rendering appropriate selections.
