Mrs. F. B. Delano Passes Away at Her Home Tuesday Morning
Mrs. F. B. Delano, wife of Dr. F. B. Delano of this city, who with her husband was a pioneer resident of the Payette Valley, died at her home in this city Tuesday morning, April 24, at 8:30 o'clock after a long illness. Mrs. Delano was 65 years of age having been born in Kalamazoo county, Mich., in 1841. She moved to the Payette Valley with her husband for her health 24 years ago. They at first settled at Falk's Store but a little later came to Payette, the couple having for years occupied the comfortable home on Park street where Mrs. Delano died.
Mrs. Delano was for 30 years a member of the Methodist church, but a few years ago took her membership to the Episcopal church.
She was a charter member of the Woman's Relief Corps of Payette, and that body, together with the local Grand Army post, of which Dr. Delano is a member, had charge of the funeral arrangements. The funeral services were held at the Methodist Episcopal church Wednesday afternoon, the pastor, the Rev. Chas. McCoard, officiating. In the service, Mrs. Delano's favorite hymn, "It Is Well With My Soul," was sung. A large number of Mrs. Delano's old friends attended the services and followed the remains to their last resting place in Riverside cemetery.
