Death of Mrs. Ryder
Mrs. Susan Ann, the widow of Mr.
Warren H. Ryder, died at her home
in this village Wednesday evening,
after a long illness, having been con-
fined to her bed for nearly three years
During the past two months she had
declined steadily until the end came
peacefully.
Mrs. Ryder was born in the house
in which she died, on Aug. 24, 1825,
the daughter of Sylvanus and Lydia
(Hallett; Gorham, and was the last
survivor of quite a large family of
brothers and sisters.
She spent nearly the whole of a
long and busy life in the home in
which her birth and death took place,
and she was esteemed and respected
by all her neighbors, who are sad-
dened by the passing on of one more
of the .old inhabitants of the village.
In her home Mrs. Ryder was cherish-
ed by her family, and she was
tenderly cared for during her illness
by the son and daughter whose privi-
lege it was to remain at home and de-
vote themselves to their parents in
their declining years. By them their
mother will be greatly missed.
Mrs. Ryder is survived by three
sons, Henry W. Ryder of Phoenix,
Arizona, Horace G. and Charles C.
Ryder of this village and two daugh-
ters, Mrs. E. S. Hershey of Zion City,
111., and Miss Caroline E. Ryder. She
also leaves four grandchildren and
several nephews and nieces. Mr. Ry-
der died last March.
She had been a member of the New
Jerusalem church at Yarmouth for
many years, and although she had
been prevented by extreme deafness
from participating in the services for
a long period, she retained her firm
religious faith to the end of her life.
The funeral of Mrs. Ryder took
place Saturday afternoon and was at-
tended by Rev. C. B. Fisher of Med-
ford, formerly pastor of the Baptist
church. Many beautiful flowers were
sent by friends. The interment was

The directors of the Village Im-

ist parsonage Wednesday evening.
Nine were present. Mr. Ira L. Hinck-
ley was elected to fill the vacancy left
on the board at the annual meeting.
Mr. A. L. Robbins was made chair-
man to see that the fire extinguishers
were recharged.
A street light has recently been re-
moved and placed near Walter Baker's
Mrs. Ralph Crosby and Rev. E.
McK Ames were appointed a com-
mittee to arrange for an entertain-
ment course, similar to those held the
two previous seasons, and to submit
their plans at the next meeting. Any
suggestions from those interested will
be thankfully received.
This is no money making scheme
but in the interest of the whole com-
munity.
We regret that the best things are
not always the most appreciated and
would urge that a larger number at-
tend this year than last.
The committees on entertainments
are often handicapped as they dis-
like to employ high class talent where
their experience has taught them that
in all probability the audience will be
small.
On the other hand a» a Village Im-
provement Society we had better have
uo entertainments than to have any
of a low order and must run some
financial risk if we are to raise the
standard and re-educate the public so
that they will enjoy a good lecture as
well as a minstrel show. The better this
course is patronized the greater en-
couragement will be given the Society
in its endeavor to work so that we
as a community may improve in in-
tellectual taste as well as in material
things.
Snow Storm
Owing to the snow storm the public
school had a recess Wednesday after-
noon. This was greatly enjoyed by
