MRS. NANCY
JANE KINZER
Mrs. Nancy Jane Kinzer the
wife of William Kinzer died at
her home one mile east of Carmel on Monday night at 1 o'clock,
October 22, 1911. Her sickness
extended over a period of over
one year and many times it was
expected that she could not survive but for a very short time.
But often she rallied and seemed
to be much better with a hope for
recovery. These hopes always
proved delusive. Paralysis was
the main trouble, at first light
strokes but later one that para-
lized the entire right side, also
destroying her power of speech.
This was a great drawback in
caring for her. She could not
tell her wants.
During all of her sickness she
eared for by her husband
and three sons. She thought a
great deal of her sons and often
when they would pass the window
she would salute them with a
wave of her hand and they would
re im the greeting with a gesture and kind smiles. She emphatically believed in her sons
and they in her. Years ago
n she was sick and did not
ct to get well she called them
to her and gave some good
motherly advice.
Her death came calm and
jeful, her last hours were
just like a lamp going out for
it sinking lower
and bvvar with no movement of
a muscle. No one could tell
when really the spirit took its
flight.
The funeral was held Wednesday evening from the home conducted by undertaker Nutt of
Carmel, Willis Bond, of Danville,
lnd. conducting the religious
services.
Mrs. Kinzer was not a member
of any religious denomination,
but was a good woman according
to the general acceptation of the
term.
Mrs. Kinzer was born in North
Carolina December 14th, 1839,
In 1868 she came to Indiana and
for a few years resided near
Carmel and worked as a domestic
in many homes in and near Carmel and some in the factory at
Westfield. On the 2d of January
1872 she was married to William
Kinzer and spent the rest of her
life upon the farm east of Carmel in camparative peace and
quiet.
To this union were born Albert,
John, Henry and Mary Jane
Kinzer. The latter died at 9
years of age. Those who survive
Mrs. Kinzer and were near and
dear to her are her husband,
three sons, a mother, two sisters,
and five grandchildren.
Mrs. Kinzer from the time she
was 15 years of age worked al
most continuosly in the cotton
mill either spinning or weaving
at all times. The factory day
was from early until late. Es
pecially was this the case in time
of the civil war, when the factories were crowded with orders.
During the war nany boys and
men were caught up and rushed
into the rebel army. These
factory girls and others took an
active part in hiding out and
feeding these boys and men to
keep them out of the army.
Food would be left at  soma
agreed on place and at night they
could step out and get it. Some
times the boys would be furnished wcmen clothing so the
better to escape, being caught.
It meant death to many of these
union boys if caught, so thev
owe a great debt of gratitude to
these women and they appreciate
it. These factory girls stand by
each other about as a company
of soldiers. Mrs. Kinzer and
these girls were active workers
in the relief of such as these and
much of their means and time
went to help the needy and waiting on the sick. May we profit
by the lesson and live so as to
have a clear conscience.
William Kinzer.

annual hunt in the northern
wilds. The party consisted of
John Graves, Fred Johnson,
Austin Sheets, Milo Hershey,
Dr. K. C. Hershey, H. A

Lew Eller, of Carmel, accompanied the party in the capacity
of cook.
The party this year will go to
Glidden, Wis., and from there
will procure teams, and transfer
their baggage overland through
the woods a distance of fourteen
miles. Owing to the condition
of the woods for travel, the
capacity of the two wagons will
be taxed with the supplies for
the camp, and the hunters will
be required to "hoof it."
The camp will be established
in the north-western part of
Wisconsin, near the state line of
Minnesota. As a representative
of the Standard accompanied the
party, full details of the expedition may be expected in this
paper each week hereafter until
the party returns.

WILL VOTE ON
LIGHT PLANT
An election has been ordered
for November 24th to determine
the matter of electric lights and
electric power for Carmel. The
proposition embodies the expenditure of $6500 by bonding
the town for this amount, current
being taken from the Traction
line. The board has put the
matter up to the voter and it is
for the  citizens  to  determine.
A careful consideration should
be given the proposition before
the voter enters the booth. He
should determine for himself by
investigation and not by the
testimony of someone who is for
it or "forninst it."
This fact should have due consideration that the bonding of
the town will not call for any
additional tax and if this proposition is turned down then the
only resource to get the lights
and power will be by taxation
and several now claim their
taxes are too high.
Westfield is making arrangements to install an acetylene
lighting system but they have
not as yet determined the way
in which they will secure them.
Probably by issuing bonds.
