ANOTHER GONE
Mrs. Redpath Passed to Her Reward
This Morning

For a long time past Mrs. John Redpath has been confined to her Mitchell street home with sickness, and although it was announced some time ago that she was very low and no hopes were entertained for recovery, still the news of her death this morning came as a sudden shock to the many friends of the family. Mrs. Sara Redpath, wife of Rev. John Redpath, passed away at 9 o'clock this morning at the age of 58 years, 2 months and 11 days. Besides a husband she leaves three children to mourn her death, Robt. U. Redpath of New York, James and Henry Redpath, of this city. One child which was born to them preceded her to the world beyond. Mrs. Redpath was born in Michigan the 17th of February, 1850, and was the daughter of Dr. and Mrs. Uriah Upjohn. In 1877 she was married to Rev. John Redpath. Mrs. Redpath came to northern Michigan about thirty-six years ago, coming to Petoskey first in 1874. The family have held a position in Petoskey circles, highly respected by all. The funeral will be held Thursday afternoon at 2 p.m. from the home, Rev. Wilson Aull, assisted by Rev. J. J. Cook and Rev. Harvey Wilson assisting. Friends will please omit flowers.
