Thursday, October 23, 1930 MRS. P. C .WOLCOTTS FUNERAL YESTERDAY and comforting. The Rev. Christoph Keller, rector of Trinity church and Dean Edwards, rector emeritus of Christ church, Lake Forest, read the burial service and Bishop Geo. Craig Stewart administered the Holy Sacraâ€" ment assisted by the Rev. Leonard Wolcott.. Interment was at Bataâ€" via, IIl. Besides her husband Mrs. Wolcott is survived by three childrenâ€"Mrs. Mary Prior of Jacksonville, Fla:; Roger P. Wolcott, an employe of the British government in Canton, China, and the Rev. Leonard C. Wolcott of Denver. When Dr. and Mrs. Wolcott came| to Highland Park Trinity parish wnsl a struggling oneâ€"and it was no easy | matter for a young clergyman and his wife with little children to underâ€" take the work necessary at that time. It meant many privations, vexations and trials of patience but Mrs. Wolâ€" cott met them all, with a courage that was an inspiration and help to her| husband and his parishioners. { Her life was lived along the straight line of dutyâ€"and those who knew her best knew the beauty of her charâ€" acter in its full significance. She was a bright exemplar of a devoted wife and mother and the living out of the traits that go to make a home was her lifeâ€"long service. Never very robust, she yet found time in the midst of engrossing famâ€" ily cares to aid in all the church work of the parish as well as much of the charitable work in the village even to the extent of using much of the strength which should have been conserved for her own needs, The unselfish love, faithfulness, fidelity to small things as well as great, persisâ€" tence in well doing, the constant reaching out after the best gifts, the quick intuition that decides what to choose amid life‘s perplexities .and what to cast away, were her‘s to: a wonderful extent. She was a splendid, lovable woman with a spirit as strong and courageâ€" ous as her heart was tender and true, and we cannot doubt that in her spirit life she is the same kind and loving woman we knew here. (Continued from page 3) nue, which, according to the Press article, originated with me. The plan referred to is probably the one which 1 mentioned to the directors of the Chamber of Commerce but, if you will remember, I spoke of it as the plan that Mayor Lewis had suggested at a meeting with the property owners on Central avenue, west of Linden, last summer. The mayor‘s suggestion was that the property owners west of Mrs. Srmpson‘s properties at the northâ€" west corner and at the southwest corâ€" rer of Linden and Central avenues should agree to assume a special asâ€" sessment tax for the purpose of purâ€" chasing and improving the Sampson property for park purposes. In such , T uFSnERR Tc imie is sessment tax for the purpose of purâ€" chasing and improving the Sampson property for park purposes. In such an event, according to the. mayor‘s stutement, the Park district was agreeable to acquiring the Sampson Mr. Vigeant Explains Improvement Plan on Which He Will Speak (Continued from page 3) property on that basis, in which case the property west of Mrs. Sampson‘s as far as the present business district would be zoned for business use. All of the property owners present at the meeting with the mayor were agreeable to the general idea of such a plan providing that the amount of property used for such a park and the distribution of the expense would be fair and equitable. To date, nothing further has been discussed with the property owners west of Linden aveâ€" nue. It is my thought that some such plan would be an excellent solution of the problem in question and would be advantageous to the city as a whole as well as to afford relief for the owners who have suffered loss in property values due to the business district being so close to them on the wes IN THE MATTER OF _ THE â€" HIGHI PARK DISTRICT MENT FOR: THE IMPROVING AsS HUSTON R.
