Year's morning in her home in Milton. Funeral services are planned for 2:30 o'clock Saturday in the Milton Seventh Day Baptist church. Burial will be in Milton.
"Aunt Metta" as she was lovingly called by a host of friends, was able Christmas day
to accompany Mr. and Mrs. Roy SIZER, who have been caring for her in her home, to the home of their daughter, Mrs. Burleson VAN HORN. She was taken sick Friday and seemed too frail to withstand any ailment.
She is survived by two daughters Mrs. Charles THORNGATE of Albion and Mrs.
