Mrs. Mary C. Ayres, wife of Forman Ayres, of Little Silver, died on Monday evening of heart disease, in the 73d years of her age. The funeral services will be held from her late residence tomorrow afternoon at two o'clock, and will be conducted by the Rev. Thaddeus Wilson, of Shrewsbury. The interment will be made at West Long Branch.
Mrs. Ayres was born at Hoppertown, now known as West Long Branch, on April 16th, 1816. During her long life of nearly three-quarters of a century, she had only lived in two houses--her father's house in which she was born, and the house at Little Silver to which she removed upon her marriage to Mr. Ayres, more than fifty years. Her marriage was a happy one and resulted in seven children. Three of the children died in infancy. The remaining four, two sons and two daughters, are grown up and happily married.
Mrs. Ayres was never connected with any church, but attended divine service at the Presbyterian church at Shrewsbury. During her long life she was highly esteemed by all her friends and neighbors for her kindly disposition and many charities to the poor and friendless.
