The beautiful life of Miss Florence Baker was brought to a close on Saturday morning at 8 o’clock at the home of her mother, Mrs. Eliza Baker, in Highland Park. An infection of the lungs was responsible for her death, and she had been an invalid since last October. Some time was spent at Asheville, N. C. in the hope of benefitting her health, but she was compelled to return to her home in this city without hope. She was a daughter of the late Dr. Moses Baker and was 38 years old. She was born and reared in Stockwell, coming to Lafayette after the death of her father. The following sisters survive: Mrs. J. H. Millis of Stockwell; Mrs. James l. Caldwell of this city, and Mrs. Albert B. Rogers of Boston. Miss Baker was a member of the Methodist church and was a woman who possessed many rare traits of character.
