Mrs. Pierce was nearly a life long resident of this village and had many many warm friends who will hear of her death with sorrow. She was a woman of splendid Christian virtues and many of the university students who made their home with her have warm recollections of the motherly woman who rejoiced with them in their successes and consoled them in their trials and hardships.
