      Baden - On Friday, March 10, 1939, at 10.25 a.m. the death occurred very suddenly in Baden of Mrs. Sophia Augusta Seip in her 61st year. The death took place at her home and although Mrs. Seip had been in failing health for a couple of weeks, her very sudden demise came as a great shock to her family and friend's. The late Mrs. Seip was born in Baden on May 28, 1878, a daughter of the late Mr. John Weiler and Mrs. Eliz. Forler Weiler. On January 16, 1900, the deceased lady was married to Mr. Louis A. Seip, who predeceased her on September 28, 1935.

      There is left to mourn the loss, seven children, namely: Francis, Mrs. Wm. Tomlinson, Lillian, Mrs. Louis Hanston and Edward, all of Detroit, Mich., Harry of Royal Oaks, Mich., Carl of Welland and Marie and Clara at home.

      Two brothers and one sister, also survive, Miss Clara Weiler of Baden, Harry of Detroit and Edward of Baden.

      Funeral services were held on Monday afternoon, March 13th with Rev. Findlay G. Stewart of St. Andrew's Presbyterian Church, Kitchener in charge. The late Mrs. Seip was a member of Baden Presbyterian Church.
