U. women of Lake county, died at the home of her son, Charles Raught, West and Clayton streets, Waukegan, on Wednesday of last week, aged eighty-four years. Mrs. Raught was a wonderful woman, a fact shown forcefully in her act by whicfi she selected the pall bearers from among her relatives whom she wished to carry her body to its resting place. They were John Sutherland, Henry Sutherland, Neal Shultis, Clarence Shultis, Carl Atterbery and Robert Fulton. Mrs. Raught had been ill with hardening of the arteries for eight years. Since May 1 her condition had been very serious. Her passing therefore did not come unexpectedly. Mrs. Raught left a paper which she wrote herself in which she mentioned the pall bearers she desired and also made several other requests and gave facts concerning her life. For forty years the Raught family lived at Volo and none was better known here. Mr. Raught died thirteen years ago. For seven years past Mrs. Raught had resided with her son in Waukegan. » A friend, in spealcing of Mrs. Raught, said: "She was a wonderful woman. If the minister was absent at a service^ she could deliver as fine a sermon as one would wish to hear. Fact is, she was better than many ministers who have studied for the profession."
