Once more the silent reaper, Death, has garnered home an estimable young woman, a former resident of Harpursville [Broome Co., NY], Miss Ada Edson. She was born near the village of Harpursville April 24, 1870, and always lived in this vicinity until June, 1902, when she went to Twin Bridges, Montana, where she held the position of seamstress in an Orphan's Home for four years, at which time, in company with Miss Sarah Robinson and Gertrude Allen she removed to Lewiston, Montana, where they built a home. She had been in poor health for more than a year, and for a few months had been steadily growing worse until the physicians decided there was no help for her, unless it was through an operation. She came to Binghamton September 4th, and entered a private hospital. The operation revealed cancer of the liver, for which there was no help, and she only lived three weeks longer. She died Wednesday, Sept. 30. She was an earnest Christian worker, and a member of St. James' Episcopal Church of Lewiston.
