"The Sabbath Recorder", Vol 65, No 16, p 507, Oct. 19, 1908.

In Hopkinton, R. I., September 30, 1908, Mrs. Mary A. Stillman, in the 62d year of her age.

Mrs. Stillman was the daughter of Joseph J. and Abbie T. Capwell and was born in Hopkinton, R. I., where the days of her life were passed. Her childhood and youth were spent at the Capwell homestead and soon after her marriage she and her husband established a home near by where the remainder of her days were spent.

At the age of nineteen she was baptized and joined the First Seventh-day Baptist Church of Hopkinton, R. I., and of this church she remained a faithful member till her death. She delighted in the services of the sanctuary and was a faithful attendant thereupon till a short time before her death when; she became too ill to enjoy this privilege.

Thirty-eight years ago she was united to William P. Stillman in holy wedlock. She assisted him in building a happy home and there she was best known and most loved. To them were born four daughters, who together with her husband, one brother, and one sister remain to cherish her memory and to mourn their loss in her departure. In her life she was quiet, patient, and self-sacrificing, and was loved by all who knew her, as was attested by the large number who attended her farewell services, which were held October 2 in the home she had helped to build and where she had spent so many happy years. Interment took place in the First Hopkinton Cemetery. WM. L. B.
