Mrs. Jesse Grubb.
Again it is our painful duty to announce the visit of death, the reaper whose work never ends. Its task is always just ahead and will not cease until the judgment day. It is no respecter of persons, but deals with all alike. Maude, the loving wife of Jesse Grubb, bid fai’ewell to earth and friends last Saturday morning, her death being caused by that undermining disease, consumption. She was but a young woman, with many long and happy years before her, when the cruel grasp of this awful slayer fastened his clutches upon so fair a specimen of womanhood. Even the roses and lilies must perish, yet how beautiful while they remain with us. The deceased was born Nov. 28, 1870, in Rensselaer, and was the daughter of Mrs. Letitia Benjamin. She was raised up among us and counted her friends by the score. In 1892 she was married to Jesse Grubb, and one child was the result of their union. The family had been living in Marion, Ind., for some time and only a few weeks before her death the deceased was brought to the home of her
