Mrs. Hannah Baxter, aged 89 years, died at the almshouse Sept. 14, was brought here for burial on Tuesday Sept. 15.  "Aunt Hannah" as she was familiarly known lived since 1865 in this town. She was a widow four times.  Never had a child of her own, but raised about 20 children.  She owned at one time the property now owned by Wm. Duffie; sold that and went to Hannibal, Mo. about 4 years ago; but after remaining there only a short time, home sickness brought the old lady back to Webster where she was supported by the citizens until last spring, when she grew so feeble as to be unsafe living alone, she was taken to her foster son, Morgan Edgecomb in Carthage, and from thence to the place where she died.
