JULIA A. BARKER

DIED:
In this village, on Sunday, the 17th inst., at 4 o'clock, A.M., Mrs. Julia A.
wife of Geo. W. Barker, Esq., aged 64 years.
Mrs. Barker's illness was short, and the announcement of her sudden death was
received with deep sorrow in the community. She was a native of Windham county,
Connecticut, and during her residence here endeared herself to all her
acquaintances. The deceased was kind to the poor, and her readiness to administer
to the wants of the distressed and sick was exceeded only by the attentive and
tenderly manner in which she performed the duties; and her many actions of
benevolence will long be remembered by those who have been the recipients of her
charity. Truly her departure leaves a void in the hearts of those who had an
acquaintance with her which it will not be easy to fill. Esq. Barker has the
heartfelt sympathy of the community in this hour of affliction.
