MRS. ADA GEROW-ROBINETTE.

A deep gloom was cast over the Colonville community Saturday evening when it was learned that Mrs. Ada Robinette second youngest daughter of Mr. and Mrs. M. Gerow, and a bride of but a little over two months, had bidden farwell to care and loved ones and has passed to her reward.

Her illness which had its beginning in a severe cold extended over a period of about six weeks and although it was generally known that she was confined to her bed, still her condition was not considered serious even by immediate members of the family until the latter part of the week, when the report became current that but few hopes for her recovery were entertained. Then kind neighbors and friends began pouring into the home offering their assistance in various ways, but in vain were all their efforts together with the best medicall skill that could be employed and surrounded by those most near and dear to her, she, realizing that the Lord hath spoken, bade them a sad and tender farwell and peacefully passed into that deep sleep which has its awakening in yonder celestial city.

Ada Gerow-Robinette was born here on her father's farm and has spent her entire but short life in this community having attended the Colonville school until Christmas, when she chose to take unto herself a husband, in the person of Clarence Robinette, who togetherrrrr with a father, mother, three sisters and four brothers are left to mourn her sad departure, but as the poet says; "She died in the beauty of her youth and in our memory she will ever be young and fair."

Her funeral conducted by Rev. Mr. Moffit was held Tuesday at two p.m. from the Colonville church which was crowed to its utmost capicity this together with the beautiful floral offering attested to the high esteem in which she was held by all who knew her.

The sympathy of the entire community goes out to the grief stricken family in their sad bereavement. Clare Sentinel, 10 April 1908
