Hutton--Friday, February 27, 1880, at her home in Scotch Grove, Mrs. M. H. Hutton, aged 62 years of consumption.
Mrs. Hutton had been for some time prior to her death, slowly failing under the fatal disease; but her death is supposed to have been hastened by the shock occasioned by the accident to her husband, mentioned in the Express two weeks ago.
Mrs. Hutton was a native of Ohio. She came to Iowa about the year 1840, where she was married to her husband who still survives her. She was the mother of seven children—six of whom are still living and grown into honorable and useful men and women. Mrs. Hutton was for many years a member of the Methodist church, and a devoted and consistent Christian woman. She has gone to her reward.
