DEATH, OF MRS. WILSON STERRETT

Mrs. Wilson Sterrett, mother of County Superintendent Sterrett, was found dead in her. bed at her home near R3|ckfleld early* last Saturday morning. She retired the evening before in usual health and was found at four o’clock next morning. Death did the work so quietly that there was no evidences of pain or struggle. It is thought that heart trouble was the cause. She was fifty-eight years of age and the mother of thirteen children, all of whom survive her except one son who died two years ago at w the age of twenty-two. These children were all born to Mr. and Mrs. Wilson Sterrett. Wilson Sterrett, the father, is still living. Mrs. Sterrett had many friends and acquaintances at Wheatfield and Rensselaer who will be shocked to learn of her unexpected death.
