Following a prolonged illness, Mrs. Albert Weed, one of Ticonderoga's most highly esteemed women, surcomed at her home early Sunday morning. Mrs Weed was brought home about two weeks ago from a Boston hospital, where she underwent treatment for several weeks in a futile attempt to regain her former health. While her death was not entirely unexpected, her passing is a distinct shock to Ticonderoga. where she spent the greater part of her life, and where her devotion to the church, hospital and child welfare gave her a position in the comunity munity which few women attain.
Ida Stevens Weed was born in iWadhams, but early in life she moved with her family to Ticonderoga,where she married Mr. Weed a few years later. With the exception of her brief childhood residence in Wadhams, Mrs. Weed spent her entire life here.
She was President of the Women's Auxhiary of the Moses-Ludington member and valued worker in the Church of thew Cross, and for the past few years Mrs. Weed had been intensely interested in Child Welfare work, and in Ticonderoga. It was largely through her untiring efforts that this cause was successfully furthered in Ticonderoga. ! Besides her husband, Mrs. Weed is survived by one daughter, Mrs. Bernard Malaney, of Auburndale, Mass, one sister, Mrs. Walter French; a half sister. Miss Gertrude Ticonderoga. and her step-mother, Mrs Charles Stevens, and a half brother, Allen Stevens all of Ticonderoga.
