OBIT: "Last Sunday afternoon we followed to her last resting place one of the brightest orna-ments of humanity, a faithful mother; a mother who counts among her children one of the best Governors we have had in our State; and a General and a Colonel who have nobly distinguished them-selves during the late rebellion. Mrs. Dorothea Salomon died here last Friday, of paralysis, aged 78 years.
Two years ago she celebrated her golden wedding with her beloved husband, who is still lingering on earth, when all her children and grand children were with the happy parents. Since then their youngest daughter living, Mrs. Rudolph, has been the only child who could be with them, and most faithfully and nobly has she fulfilled her filial duties.
The funeral was very numerously at-tended, although there was no public notice given, on account of the low state of the old gentleman, Mr. Salomon. Mr. Esslinger made a few very ap-propriate remarks at the grave, and then was laid to rest one whose life and conduct might serve as a pattern for all as that of a true, loving wife and a most faithful devoted mother.
The bereaved children have the most heartfelt sympathy of their many friends and of our whole community..
