In 1863 she was married to E. S. Bard and to them were born two children a son and a daughter, Mrs. Cora A. Langford, deceased, and Merritt W. Bard, who lives in Aurora.
E. S. Bard died in 1872 and in 1873 she was married to Christian Wolf who died in the early spring of 1896. Since then she has always seemed rather unsteady and unhappy.
Our sister has always seemed unfortunate. When her son was but a babe she lost her right arm by an accidental discharge of a gun. We might mention many other afflictions she has suffered, but her constant prayer was "God be merciful." Is it any wonder her poor, tired brain was overcome by this wave of despondency? We all know her energetic independence.
She leaves her son M. W. Bard and wife and family of three daughters of Aurora, two grand-daughters and one grand son of her daughters children, four sisters in the deepest grief, six half sisters, two half brothers and many other members of the family who were very dear to her.
She was well known in Walnut. O, how we shall miss her. SISTER.
