MARY P. S. ARMS DIED LAST TUESDAY

Well-Known Resident Passed To Great Beyond After Weeks of Illness

The community was saddened on Tuesday of this week, when the news spread rapidly around town that Mrs. Mary P. S. Arms had passed away at her home on Railroad avenue. She had not been in the best of health for some little time, and her death was not altogether unexpected.

Mary P. S. Arms was born in Gibson county Indiana, and was educated in Evansville, that State. She came to California in 1870, and taught school for four years in Sierra and Plumas counties. On May 28, 1874, she was married to William Arms, who passed away some years ago, She, with her family, came to Calistoga to reside on October 1, 1907, and her life here has always been for the betterment of the community. Always active in every good work, she has endeared herself to a host of friends, who are proud to be so numbered. Being a great lover of good literature, she thoroughly enjoyed her service as librarian here in Calistoga, a position which she held for a number of years. She was gifted in writing and loved the work. The Calistogan has been proud on a number of occasions to print for Mrs. Arms little booklets containing her poetry, every line of which breathed of high thoughts and everyone suggested a higher plane of living. She seemed to see far beyond this life and see the more blessed life that is to come to those who aspire thereto. She had a cheery, happy disposition; one that looked out for others in a helpful way, always wanting to make some one else happy. If this cold old world had more Mrs. Arms in it, this mundane sphere would be a happy place in which to live.

The funeral will be held this afternoon at 2 o'clock in A.H. McArthur's funeral chapel and friends are especially invited to attend and pay their last respects to the departed dead.

The deceased leaves to mourn her demise, two daughters, Miss Myra Arms and Mrs. Mary Jacks, who have been most devoted in the care of then mother, and who have the sympathy of this entire community, as well as friends elsewhere, in the death of their beloved mother.
