_ Mrs. Wm. C. Webster Dead 
A nnie, wife of William C. Web- 
, died at her late home situated 
1 a beautiful old hill overlooking 
he sea in Rockport on Wednesday 
m¢ ering at 7 o’clock. While her 
ath was not unlooked for, her de- 
cease was nevertheless sudden. She 
¥ d awakened that morning re- 
reshed and happy and when the 
nurse came with her morning meal 
found she had passed away. She 
Was a charter member of Preston 
RC, of Beverly Farms, in which 
she had taken an active part, and 
y was much devoted to that organiza- 
tion. The funeral services were held 
at her late home in Rockport this 
afternoon conducted by Rev. Clar- 
ence S. Pond, pastor of the Beverly 
= ‘arms Baptist church, assisted by 
Rev. Mr. Barton, pastor of the Uni- 
versalist church of Rockport. A 
large number of friends from Bever- 
ly Farms were in attendance, inelud- 
‘ing representatives from Preston 
_ WRC., the Sarah Wyman Whitman 
¢lub and the Baptist church. Inter- 
ment was made in the cemetery in 
Rockport. 
Her husband is now eighty years 
of age, and his loss is a great one, 
but he is bearing up bravely and 
has the sympathy and kindly in- 
terests of his hosts of friends. Mrs.

Webster was born in Quincy 74 years 
ago where at that time her father 
had interests in the granite business 
of that place. When two years of 
age she moved to Rockport, and fifty- 
four years ago, married William C. 
Webster. Early in life they removed 
to Beverly Farms where they lived 
for about thirty years, returning to 
Rockport three yéars ago. Her life 
at Beverly Farms is an interesting 
one. By her early training and in- 
terests she was a woman of deep 
religious convictions and broad hu- 
man sympathies. She was a broad 
minded Universalist in faith, but was 
a regular devoted worshiper at the 
Beverly Farms - Baptist Church, 
where she identified herself with all 
its interests, although she never 
firmly associated herself with the 
church membership. She was a char- 
ter member of the original Bible 
School Class taught by the late Mrs. 
Sarah W. Whitman, with whom 
there was a strong friendship. Much 
is due these ladies that this class in- 
ereasd in membership and interest 
and was formally organized as the 
Friends Bible Class of which Mrs. 
Whitman continued to be its teacher 
during her’ residence in Beverly 
Farms. Mrs. Webster was elected 
president, which position she held 
for a long time even after her re-

. Webster gave Mrs. 
moval to Rockport. One particular 
object accomplished and worthy of 
mention is the co-operation Mrs. 
Whitman who, 
realizing the needs of a home as a 
residence for the minister, conceived 
_ the idea of devoting the class work 
to this purpose as the church itself 
was heavily incumbered with debt. 
The class voted to raise the money 
to build the ‘‘manse’’ and began 
the work of holding fairs, ete., in the 
chapel. When sufficient funds had 
been accumulated a lot of land was 
purchased on High street and the 
house prected, a {mortgage being 
necessary. After Mrs. Whitman’s 
death the class was reorganized as 
the Sarah Wyman Whitman club, 
_and the burdens of management and 
the details of the work fell heavily 
on Mrs. Webster, who proved her- 
self the master of the situation, and 
with the help given by her many 
friends, including those among the 
summer colony, the class under her 
wise leadership, careful management 
and tactful labors succeeded in rais- 
ing the entire amount, and it was 
a ‘day of great vejoicing when the 
final payment was made. All of her 
devoted labors and faithful work 
has borne similar results.
