Mrs Cuba Slay Ainsworth, wife of Fred Ainsworth, died Sunday, November 3rd, 1918, about one o'clock in the afternoon. She died of pneumonia, following an attack of the influenza.
This is one of the saddest deaths recorded in our county during the days of so much sorrow to so many of our families. The beloved young woman was the picture of health and happiness only a few days ago, and it is heart-breaking to think that her joyful spirit is stilled by death. This great comfort and consolation remains, however: She was a sincere and consistent church member , and a faithful follower of the lowly Nazarene, and while her eyes are closed to earthly scenes, they are opened to the greater beauties and joys of the home not built with mortal hands.
Mrs Ainsworth was the daughter of Mr and Mrs A D Slay. She and Fred Ainsworth were married about a year ago. To the young husband, himself on a bed of sickness, and to the host of relatives and dear friends, the tenderest sympathy of our community goes out in full measure.
