Fourteen years ago she established the gtore where she has ever since beeti-engaged in business, and by careful and intelligent management she ‘has prospered. The only, relative she leaves in this part of the country is her widowed mother, Mrs. Jane Ludby, who has for so ue time resided with her.Mrs. Sterling was a woman of splendid qualities of head and heart, and had the confidence and warm friendship of those associatéd with her in social and business matters.
