Amelia, wife of Lewis Perry, died Friday, October 12, at her home in Centerville, at the age of 34 years, 10 months.

The funeral occurred Sunday at 2 o'clock at the house. Rev. H. T. Torosyan officiated. Mr. Asa W. Stevens sang two selections, "What a Friend We Have in Jesus," and "Jesus Lover of My Soul." Several beautiful floral pieces were arranged about the casket. There were many people from out of town in attendance, principally from Wareham and Falmouth. The pall-bearers were Messrs. Aaron S. and Gorham F. Crosby, E. P. Childs and Ed. Hallett. Interment was at Beechwood. Mrs. Caviaro, who has been for eight years in the Salvation Army of Boston, where she earned the commission of lieutenant, will care for the motherless children.
