Alice Eleanor Hiner, wife of James M. Hiner, and youngest daughter of Patrick and Lydia Ewing, died at her home near Ewington in this county, on Wednesday, Oct. 28th, after an illness of over one year's duration, with consumption. Her physician thought there was an abscess in the hip which opened into the bowels, and this trouble was fatal, to say nothing of the tubercles in her lungs.

Her funeral was preached at Milford on Friday, Oct. 30, by Rev. Lathrop, the pastor of the Methodist church located there, after which she was buried in the cemetery close by. She was over thirty-one years of age, and the mother of seven children, two of whom are dead, five survive, three boys and two girls.

Mrs. Hiner was received into the Christian church at Milford in the fall of 1867, and died in the full possession of her mental faculties, believing that she would join her children and friends in the world beyond, and her cheerful words to those around her bedside after death was curtain, will live as long as memory serves her friends and relatives.

Pursuant to her request, her body was kept one night at her own home and another at the old homestead with her mother before buried. Mr. Lathrop, on the occasion of her funeral, preached the best funeral sermon, in view of the surroundings, the writer ever heard.
