Life's work well done,
Life's race well run.
Life's crown well won,
Then comes rest.

Died, at the home of her daughter, Mrs. Phil Davis, at Douglas, March 27, 1905, Mrs. J. M. Sharp of Lusk. Mrs. Sharp has been ailing for many months, but while her friends knew she was a sick woman, they did not think she was so near the end. Deceased has lived among us for a great many years and was known to us as a woman of many good qualities. We sympathize deeply with the husband, mother and daughters who are left to mourn. The remains were laid to rest in the Douglas cemetery, funeral services being conducted yesterday afternoon at that place.
