She had a treasury of the spirit which she shared freely and of which many parâ€" took. Through those who learned to h.hh-ud-1 will abide. To those of her loved brought to her, and no one ever sought her time and thought in vain. In recent years there were two inci~ dents in the life of the community which indicate the position which Mrs. house was dedicated she was the one When the first New Year‘s tea for the entire village was given she stood in the chief place in the receiving line. There were many other ways in which ment. And this had come through the common recognition of her qualities Mrs. Comstock retained almost to the last the same clearness of mind which had always served her in more active days. For about a year she lost ground gradually as illness took a greater hold upon her hged body. Fortunately she was spared from keen suffering and accepted with forâ€" titude and little comment a situation which she must have known had but shared her home since Mr. Comstock‘s death. Everything was done to bring comfort in this closing phase. Time, thought and effort were given freely. Mra. Comstock‘s release into a finer came last Saturday morning. â€" We all recognize that in the passing of her days it‘remained a center for the friends who had known her from of weariness and waiting she received the devoted attention of her sister, Chicago was the city to which this English emigrant family came, and it was there that > Mrs. Comstock passed her girlhood and early womâ€" anhood. She took her place couragâ€" eously in every good endeavor and was a member of the Englewood Presbyterian â€" church. Over forty years ago Mrs. Comstock and her husband came to live in Ravinia. There is much that might be said about the meaning of this couple to the community in which they were among the first to live. Mr. Comâ€" stock was a carpenter of the old fashâ€" fomed type of craftsmanship, and there are men now earning their livelihood as carpenters and contractors on the North Shore who served their apprenâ€" ticeship under hins.~ A man of unusâ€" ual force of character he found in his wife comradeship and a thorough symâ€" pathy in his plans. It was in the Comstock home that many projects of value to Ravinia were developed. In those early days it was a sort of comâ€" munity center, a common gatheringâ€" place, for the few dozen families who made up its population. When Mr. Comstock passed away in 1910 his wife preserved the tradition of advice around the home. To the very end stock had found the secret of the first and acquired that serenity of outâ€" look and peace of mind which are alâ€" ways the priceless treasures of those who can really see and really love the outâ€"ofâ€"doors. pressed itseif in a passionate love of the outâ€"ofâ€"doors and of animals. Born in an age that antedated our modern inventions she carried over into these more comfortable and sophisticated days a wholesome note of something both primitive and powerful. Whenâ€" ever I saw Mrs. Comstock I thought at once of the daguerrotypes and old paintings thatâ€"one sees upon the walls of those who have reason to be proud of their family tradition. The major part of the secret of that strength came from contact with nature, a secâ€" ret that we of a machineâ€"ridden age have difficulty in finding. Mrs. Comâ€" Another unmistakable mark identâ€" ifying her with this instinct of the pioneer was the responsive sweetness and simplicity of a nature which exâ€" thought and effort. _ No one could meet her without becoming ‘aware of an independence of personality which was also kindly and sympathetic.
