The end of a long and well spent life came to Mrs. Jane Guyer last Friday. Her maiden name was Jane Hill. She was a niece of old Dr. Hill. She was born Jan. 25, 1834 and was only a few days short of 69 years. She was married in 1851 to her school master, John A. Guyer, who still survives. She was a woman of great native ability and for the last twenty years has been a licensed Quaker preacher and has been a power for good in her circle of friends. She performed the marriage ceremony for two of her sons and has joined the hands of many other pairs of happy people. She was the mother of many children and was not remiss in her duty to them.

Her surviving sons and daughters are Cyrus, Leander, Albert and Adolphus and Mrs. Emily Wesner and Miss Isabel Guyer. Sons and daughters preceding her into the great unknown, are Woodford, Clifford and Mrs. Louisa Boyd, _________, sister, Mrs. Martha Newlin, still lives.

The good mother and wife is gone; for she was the same that her fathers have been.

"We drink the same stream and view the same sun.
And run the same course that our fathers have run"
She sleeps in the Draper cemetery.
