Mrs. Sarah Harrington died at the home of her son-in-law, Former Alderman William Weber, 416 So. Governor Street, at an early hour this morning at the advanced age of 85. She leaves three sons and one daughter, J. J. Monett of Williamsburg; J. F. Harrington, of Decatur, Ill.; Rev. F. M. Harrington, of Iquique, Chile, S. A. and Mrs. William Weber, of Iowa City.

The remains will be taken to York Centre, Iowa county, for interment, Tuesday.

The services will be held at the late residence of the decedent at 10 o’clock tomorrow morning, and Rev. L. C. Clark will officiate.

Mrs. Harrington had been ill but a week, but her advanced age made the approach of death easy. She has been a resident of Iowa City for some time, having come to live with her daughter, Mrs. Weber, in November. In Iowa county, she was even better known, than in Johnson, but in both communities, she was recognized as a woman of noble nature and warm heart. She will be deeply mourned by many.
