Lizzie Avery Parsons was born in Lebanon on January 21, 1851: her iather being George Avery of the well known family of that name in the town. There the greater part of her childhood was spent. At the age of eighteen she married Charles Par- son, of Brooklyn, N. Y, and went to Toronto to Nve. A year or two later they moved to Ottowa and purchased vhe home in which they spent the re- mainder of their married life. Her husband died about five years ago. She had four children; two sons are still living. Her grandson joined the first contingent of soldiers raised in Canada and is now doing Red Cross work in Ttaly. Her health has been failing for sev- cral months; with this lessened re- sistance she succumbed easily to an infection which began in the tonsils, finally became systemic and came to sudden fatal termination. She was » fathful and fond mother; very de- voted to her children and always in as much sympathy with their activ- the Abell and son have re- visit with friends in Lizzie A. ities as if she were one of them. Her great versatility led her into m: Jifferent fields of work. A natur talent for music developed when she was a small child. At four years of age she played in a concert with cred- it to her teacher. At a suitable age instrumental and vocal music_in New York and became an accomplished pianist; while her voice was a pleasure to many musi- cal circles. This talen was always freely used for the benefit of her church, where it was much appreci- ated. After she married she became in- terested In painting which was be- ing much studied at that time. She Lecame an artist of considerable rep- utation and took first prizes at the Ottowa exhibitions. But on account of near-sightedness her work was mostly limited to copying, in which she excelled. ° She was very well known in char- itable societies, an active member of the Baptist church in Ottawa and es- pecially devoted to Home Missions. Her mother was the organizer of the Woman's Baptist Home Mission Soci- ety of Eastern Ontario and Quebec. Naturally ithe daughter became its first corresponding secrtary, and ‘she kept this office until within a few months of her death. Many times she served as a delegate to the mis- sionary meetings, traveling as far west as Winnipeg and to the Atlantic on the East. In these meetings she always spoke earnestly for the mis- sionaries, that are establishel through- out the Provinces; and a liberal do- nation to those she visited was the test of her real interest. Many a struggling missionary has returned from a visit to Ottawa equipped with tur coat, gloves etc. suitable for the cold weather of the North. Mrs. Parson was on the Board of Managers of the Y. W. C. A. of Ot- tawa, and was very much interested in temperance movements. Last sum- mer when a Slavic Mission was es- tablished in Ottawa she was instru- mental in obtaining a Slavic Mission- ary and in fitting up a home for this Tork. The Slavs {n Ottawa number Friends in Lebanon and its vicinity have little knowledge of her life work; but they will mourn her loss: for during all of the years that she has lived away from them she has kept in active touch with their lives— remarkable inttance of faithfulness to the friends of youth. Each year she looked forward to a visit to T.ebanon; and her memorfes of -the old town were always bright and interesting. Her patriotism fo) her native coun- try was almost piinful to see when Glx realized uut& it of her adult 1 had been passel | ¥atside itm boun- daries. o Mrs. Ray.
