The Star-Mirror, Moscow, Idaho, December 18, 1916: "The death of Mrs. Mary Nifong occurred [Friday, December 15] morning at the family residence, 7 1/2 miles northwest of Moscow. Although Mrs. Nifong has been in declining health for a number of years, death came suddenly [Friday] morning at 8:30 o'clock after she had partaken of a hearty breakfast.

"Mrs. Nifong was born in Randolph county, Illinois, March 14, 1833. She came to Idaho with her husband, Jas. Nifong in 1880. Besides her husband, she is survived by ten children: Henry Nifong of Melrose, Albert and Ed Nifong of this city, George Nifong of Cambridge, Milton Nifong of Gifford, Mrs. M. Browning and Mrs. Wm. Layfield of Portland, Mrs. Lizzie Murphy of Cambridge, Mrs. Josie Thornton of Elk Head, Ore., and Mrs. A.T. McCarty of Lewiston.

"The arrangements for the funeral swervices are not complete, pending word from relatives, but it is probable that the services will be held Sunday morning from the family home."
