Homer, Ill., Feb. 15.—Mrs. Lucy Spencer died here on Friday morning, after an illness extending over several months. Mr. Spencer was born in Homer on December 1, 1856, and resided in and around Homer practically all of her life. She was a daughter of the late Dr. and Mrs. W. A. Conkey, and was one of the makers of much of the early history of Homer. She attended the old Homer academy, an institution of learning almost forgotten. She was married to Matthew J. Spencer in August, 1895. Mr. Spencer survives, as do a sister, Mrs. E. P. Babb, of Champaign and four brothers, Dr. F. M., C. A. and A. J. Conkey, of this place, and Fred Conkey, of Howe, Ind.
The funeral probably will be held at the Presbyterian church on next Monday afternoon at 2:30. Burial will be in the G. A. R. cemetery.
