At Samaria, Malad, Oneida Co., Idaho, Sept, 22, at 1:45 a.m., Ruth, Daughter of Daniel and Ruth Williams, and wife of Elder John P. Evans.

Deceased was born on April 14th, 1816, at Scandilorvane, Breconshire, South Wales.

She was the mother of ten children, five of whom are now living at Samaria.

Elder Evans was sent to seven different counties in South Wales to preach the gospel and organize new branches, in all of which she was faithful to him in distributing tracts and bearing testimony to the truth of the Gospel.

She immigrated with her husband to Utah and arrived in Salt Lake City on Sept. 25, 1888. She was a good mother and true wife. Her last request was to her children to be faithful in the church to the end.

She died in full faith of the gospel and in hopes of a glorious resurrection.

She was followed to her grave on the 23rd by a large number of friends.
