Daughter of John Gibson and Sarah

Wife of Albert Inglesby, 1 January, Dereham, Oxford, Ontario, Canada

MRS. A. INGLESBY.. The following obituary of the late Mrs. Albert Inglesby of Fremont, Nebraska at death was announced last week is taken from the Mercur [Utah] Miner.

Mrs. Inglesby came to Utah last March on a visit to her relations. She had been suffering from valvular trouble of her heart for 3 or 4 years. Her condition becoming more serious last winter. She came out to Mercur in April to visit her sons, Eugene and Dr. A. L. Inglesby, and her brother, A. B. Gibson.

Returning to Salt Lake in a few weeks she gradually grew worse and the doctors gave no hope of her ultimate recovery. She as able to be around until the Sunday previous to her death.

The funeral took place on Wednesday afternoon from the residence of her sister, Mrs. N. B. Dresser. The services were conducted by Rev. Joel A. Smith of the Iliff Methodist Church, interment being at Mt. Olivet Cemetery.

Mrs. Inglesby was born in Ontario, Canada in 1847 and moved to Nebraska from Ingersoll, Ontario, with her husband, sons in 1890. Her husband was unable to get word of her death in time to be at the funeral.

Besides the relatives mentioned above she has two brothers in the East and a mother and sister in Aylmer, Canada. Death must have come to her as a relief for during the past few months life held much of suffering and distress for her. Her friends think of her now as freed from pain and enjoying the delights of the celestial home. To few indeed can so universal a change as death be anything but a change for the better, and this must be especially so to one who has past the prime of life, who has outlived the hopes of youth, and who feels the pangs of disease blessed be this universal hope of immortality with it's rewards recompense and it's opportunity for development. Life for the happiest of us would hold little to encourage or to bless if this belief indeed this certainty of immortal bliss and future reunion were removed. Surely the look of peace and rest we saw on the face of our loved one as she lay in her narrow and flower decked resting place was a token of the everlasting peace and joy into which she has entered.
