Obituary.

MARY J. LACEY, whose maiden name was Stewart, was born in Missouri(sic) in 1832. She was married to Tom Williams first and after his death in 1857, she married Nathan H. Lacey in 1860.(sic) Her second husband died in 1888.

Mrs. Lacey came from Boliver, Mo., to Oklahoma in 1897, and took a claim in the Custer Bend neighbordood near Red Lake, where she lived a highly esteemed citizen and well beloved old lady, until her death, which occurred May 13,(sic) 1904.

She was a kind, loving mother never too tired to do anything for her children. She was a good neighbor, and always ready to help the poor and needy in overy(sic) way she could. Every body who knew "Grandma Lacey" went to her for advice and help in their troubles, and she was uniformly ready to advise and assist.

While she was not in her earlier gears a religious woman, she felt the need of religion in her later years, and dilligently prayed for God's favor and blessing; and in His infinite mercy He heard her prayer and gave His peace, even as she had given to the poor.

Six children survived her, L. M. Williams and Mrs. E. L. Kepley who were children by her first husband, andJ. E., E. R. and J. B.Lacey and Mrs. Alce Yost, children by her second husband. E. R. Lacey has since died, and his last illness prevented an earlier attention to his mother's obituary.

"A loved one from us has gone
A voice we love is stilled
A place is vacant in our home
Which never can be filled."
