Murray, aged seventy years, died at her farm residence four miles east of Medford, last Friday, after a short illness. Mrs. Murray was an old resident of this valley, having emigrated to this county in 1870, where she has since lived. Her husband died about eleven years ago and since that time she has devoted her time to the management of her husband’s affairs. Although her health had been failing her for some time past her death was not expected and was a great shock to her family and numerous friends which she had gathered around her by her kind disposition and wining ways. She leaves a family of seven grown children, among whom are Mrs. G. F. Merriman, Samuel Murray, Mrs. Milton Maule and Mrs. Sarah Gordon. The funeral services were held at her late residence, after which the remains were taken to the Central Point cemetery for burial, followed by her family and a large concourse of friends, where she was laid to rest in the family burying lot. The funeral services were preached by Rev. Brower, of Ashland, an old friend of the family who crossed the plains with them in an early day. The afflicted family have the sympathy of a host of friends in their hours of trial and grief.
