Mrs. Mary, wife of John Fry, died at her home, about three miles west of this place, on Sunday afternoon at 2 o'clock, after an illness of some few months, superinduced by old age. She was born in Germany, January 10, 1814, and at time of death was aged 75 years, 1 month and 13 days. She emigrated to this country some forty-eight years ago and settled near Spruce Creek, and was shortly afterwards married to John Fry, who survives her. To this union was born eight children, five of whom survive her; three, Michael, Hannah and Maria have preceded her to the other shore. Her son Michael died while a soldier in the army and within a day or so of the final discharge of all soldiers who had served during the late rebellion, and his remains are buried at Arlington Heights. The living are Mrs. Susan Ayres, of Greenwood Furnace, Mrs. Mary, wife of our townsman Christian Albright; John Fry, of Norfolk, Nebraska; George Fry, of Tipton, and Henry Fry, of Grazierville. Mrs. Fry was a good true Christian woman, domestic in her habits, her whole care being centered upon those of her household, and the grandest monument that can be erected to her memory is that she did her duty as she understood it, and no one needs any more lasting. She is revered by her children and those who knew her best. We need not go out of this circle.
