In Indian Valley, Sept. 29th, 1878, Mrs. Rebecca Ann Becraft, aged 43 years, 4 months and 12 days.
Mrs. Becraft was a native of the State of Indiana. Her parents moved to Missouri in 1840, and there she became acquainted with and married Jas. T. Becraft. In 1853, the gold fever attracting them westward, her husband, in company with her father and family, moved to California, making a homje in Indian Valley, in this county, where, we believe, they have ever since resided. She was a woman of strong feelings and sympathies, a good neighbor, and had a host of friends who will sorrow for her decease and mourn with her bereaved husband and children. She was a victim of organic disease of the heart, and was called away suddenly -- in fact, without a moment's notice or warning, but her sorrow-stricken relatives can comfort themselves with the memory that she was one that needed no preparation, for her record was clear -- she was always ready.
