Congress street, Monday morning at three o’clock, following an illness which had confined her to her bed for eleven weeks and which was caused by cancer of the stomach. Mrs. Moulton was a pioneer resident of this place, having came here with her husband and family in the year 1872. Their first place of residence was in the house now occupied by E. C. Lloyd and family. Mrs. Moulton has watched the city develop from its primitive state to what it is today and although the weight of her 81 years would make her passing from this life imminent at most any time, she leaves many warm friends who will mourn her death even at this ripe old age. Mrs. Moulton was born in Pennsylvania, on July 2, 1836 and on December 28, 1858 she was united in marriage, at Plymouth, to Enoch S. Moulton. Born to this union and surviving are three sons: Elmer, of this city; George, of Ionia and Eugene, of Fenton. Also two daughters, Mrs. Emma Lamb and Mrs. Clara Moulton, who were at home with their mother. The funeral was held this afternoon from the house at 1:30 o’clock Rev. A. J. Blair officiating and interment was in Riverridge cemetery.
