the family home on Fifth street early today at the age of 72 years, death
resulting from paralysis which she suffered five months ago, followed by a
second stroke two weeks ago. Funeral services will be held Wednesday morning
from Sacred Heart church with interment at Evergreen.

24, 1850 and was married to Leonard Auton in 1868, who preceded her in death
36 years ago. Mrs. Auton came to Manitowoc county in 1871 and has resided here
