Mrs. Walter Smith, Mrs. Charles Sanks, Mrs. Henry Meyer, all of Dunlap and Mrs. George Newkirk of Redlands, California.
Mrs. Barrett was a member of the Methodist church most of her life, being a firm believer in her Savior, in whom she confessed faith, to whom she went in departing this life.
Some six months ago Mrs. Barrett underwent an operation from which she never did fully recovered sufficient strength to ward off the approach of the hand of the grim reaper. The best care that was to be has was given her during her illness, but death came to her while she was being cared for at the home of her daughter Mrs. Walter Worsfold. Funeral services were held at the Methodist church, Tuesday afternoon at 2 o'clock. Interment was in the Princeville cemetery.
