Passed Away
Mrs. Peter D. Woodruff died Monday morning of heart failure at her residence on'White-st. She had been unwell for several months, but did not become dangerously ill till quite recently.

In 1836 she removed from her home in Séneca county, N. Y., to Pitteiield. Eleven years aftershe came to Ann Ar. bor, where she has resided ever since. She leaves three children: Mrs Wm. Merrill, of Saginaw; Miss Jessle Woodruff, of this city, and F. A. Woodrufl', of Detroit. Mrs. Woodruff was a quiet, domestic woman, to whom home was the chief delight. She was unselfish and courageous in a marked degree. The funeral services will be held at two o'clock this afternoon at the late residence, Rev. J. M. Gelston officiating. All the children of the deceased will be present. fc r
