Mrs. Neff had been quite ill for a month prior to her death. She leaves a husband and four sons and one daughter-Emanuel, Albert, Lafayette and Jonathan Neff, and Mrs. Daniel Johnson of Toronto. All the family were at home at the funeral, John coming from Trout Lake, Mich., to the obsequies. Deceased was born in the township and her death is sincerely mourned by many friends outside the family circle. The remains were buried at Overholt’s on Sunday afternoon, a large number attending.
