  Notes	December 1908, her son, Mr. Rice Harding, writes: "My Mother died Dec. 4, 1865, at Buchanan, Mich., aged sixty-eight years and four months. She died suddenly on the street without a moment's warning. She was known for her great faith and piety and her charity for those who were suffering and needy, and as I look back over the forty-four years since she passed away, I can not remember that she had a fault. Her life was one continual sunshine and a benediction to all around her."
