Mrs. Isabella H. Thompson, wife of Mr. W. Shippen Thompson, residing on the corner of Sixth avenue and Clay street, died July 23, aged fifty-five years. Mrs. Thompson was born in Danville Pennsylvania. While she was quite young, her family removed to Milton, Pennsylvania, where she resided at the time of her marriage, in April 1847. She became a member of the United Presbyterian Church in Mexico, Pennsylvania, and since that time has always maintained an exemplary Christian profession. Mrs. Thompson leaves behind her husband, two sons, and two daughters, and a brother and sister. These members of her family, and many other relatives and friends, will cherish her memory as that of one consistent, and kind, and faithful in every relation of life.
The funeral services were conducted by Rev. F. S. McCabe, D. D., pastor of the First Presbyterian Church, and the large attendance of friends and neighbors attested the high regard entertained for the deceased, and the general sympathy felt for the bereaved family.
