• RIKS. JUDITH HOFFMAN On Wednesday, M*ch 28th. 1908, after great and protracted suffering before snd after a surgical operation in • Philadelphia, Mrs.- Judith, widow of • Captain William Haflpan. peacefully » passed away, at the age of 68 rwa. - Mrs. Hoffman survived her husband f SO years and was left with a family of i six children, four daughters and two e sons, of whom all^axcept one are living. These are Mra. Robert E. Hand, j Mrs. A. Carlton Hildreth, Mrs. Horace e Richardson. Mrs. William Crease, Miss Widdie Hoffman and Lewis, Hoffman. a Sirs. Hoffman has always been highB ly esteemed by the entire community K uV woman of refined, gentle and Rmiable nature. Aa the only head of the Hbme and so{ large a family for ao • many .years with the^fWo-fold anxiety r and responsibility, her (life no doubt, was often an uneven struggle. But I- how well she sustained (her position - with all its engrossing cares that - pressed upon her on every side and 6 how creditably afie raiasLand trained her family, is familiar to all. Also do g all her friends and neighbors know bow >. well abe bore up when called to the i- infinitely sadder trials of her experience — when death and bereavement jr came tc her, first in the death of her r beloved husband and support, and later v in the more mysterious dispensation of Providence in the untimely removal of e her dear son George, who had mean- ; while grown up to take his father's i- place ae her comfort and support. "These were the dark sad days of her a life but which she met with true Christian fortitude and submission, as j only firm abiding faith in God and her Savior could pass through with becoming grace and courage. Another and now only son was rapidly coming forward with suitable preparation and good promise to take a the place of his lamented brother to V cheer her declining years, and who together with his faithful sister, vowed i they would under no circumstances . Ieave^their home and mother ae long ae - she lived. This was the mother's re!t ward in return for her great devotion e and love to all her affectionate chil- - dren— a most praiseworthy act of filial r love and enviable example of the noblest affection of our being. But Mrt. B Hoffman was, with her great motherly . heart, worthy of all the unstinted de- ■ . votion and love given by all children. There was, however, great room for • eonsolstion found at the sadneas of the j old home in the sorrow of relatives and old friends and neighbors in the interesting and faithful life she had always lived and in the trust and hopeful , r patience in sickness and^suffering and in the beautiful spirit of longing Bhe ■ had for heaven, as she neared the time ' of her departure and' at last the Joy of Christian triumph over death to be, i she spoke to her daughters of how easy , it was to die with such glorious hope r of being forever with them and those . I dear one gone^before. These. were the , blessed . thoughts of the mother that confessedly reconciled the living , family to the sad parting. There was . a very large attendance at the funeral - services at her late home, conducted , by the pastor of Cold Spring Preabyterian church of which she was a . faithful member so many years, assisted by a former pastor. The pall bearers were her four sons-in-law by whom she was tenderly carried to her last resting place in Cold Spring t cemetery. j BOARD OF TRADE Eleven new members were elected at the meeting held Friday evming last.
