Elizabeth Goss, wife of George Goss, Sr., died Thursday of lung trouble aged 66 years and ten months. Deceased was the mother of eight children and a pious devoted member of the U.B. church since she was sixteen years old. Her husband, children, twenty-eight grandchildren and one great grandchild survive. The latter when born, a year ago, represented the fifth generation living in the Father Allen's family, the deceased being one of the family. For many years Mother Goss's health had been delicate and she went west in '76 and regained some strength, and again in '81 but temporary relief, only, was the result. She was one of the most kindly, sympathetic and self-denying of women and, therefore, she was honored and respected by all who knew her. The funeral was conducted Saturday, by Rev. Beghtol, of Fulton, and the remains were consigned to their silent rest in Odd Fellows cemetery.
