Always active in church circles, Mrs. Schaub, established a record by holding a continous membership in the Women's Foreign Missionary Society since she was sixteen years of age. She studied music in Buffalo, and was well known for her talent and kept up her piano work until she became ill six months ago. Her Life was an exemplification of the Christian Ideals, and she will be greatly missed by her fellow workers in the church. She loved poetry, and was a composer of ability.
