Elizabeth CAMPBELL whose death was briefly announced in the Press last
week, was born in Campsie, Sterlingshire, Scotland, September 28th, 1820.
Her maiden name was Elizabeth SCOTT.

On the 13th day of July, 1838, She was married to John CAMPBELL, of
Argyleshire. Twelve years later they emigrated to America, and subsequently
made their home in the town of Easton, in this county. In the community
where they resided they were ever regarded as people of sterling character
and worth.

Five children were born to them of whom only two survive--John CAMPBELL the
eldest and Mrs. Lizzie WITTER the youngest, both of Easton. John CAMPBELL,
senior, died August 24, 1884, at his home in Easton, and his widow six
years and three weeks after, went to join him in the Great Beyond. Of her
it can be truthfully said, her life was a blessing to many and her death is
regretted by all who knew her.
