Excerpt from In Memoriam: Mrs. Edward ElyAfter a pupilage in the College of eight years, interrupted only by her absence at the time of her mother's death, Ellen graduated, one of a class of twelve, July 20, 1859.Miss Mortimer having left the Milwaukee College in 1858 and opened a school upon a similar plan in' Baraboo, Ellen joined her in September, 1859, as advanced pupil and assist ant teacher. There, with one who fully under stood and deeply loved her, she passed a busy, useful year, and there the gladness of her nature began to reassert itself.Returning home, where her father's second marriage, in 1856, to Miss Sarah Morris, had given her another valued friend, one who proved herself a wise, kind mother, and who ever found in Ellen help and comfort, she remained three years. Then on April 20, 1863, she became the wife of Mr. Edward Ely, of Chicago, where for thirteen years she lived and labored, and where, on Thursday morning, February 17, 1876, aged thirty-four years, she fell asleep.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
