Mrs. William Bonnallie, whose death we noted last week, was born in Poughkeepsie, N. Y., June 11, 1854. She was the daughter of the late Edgar Smith, one of the early settlers of Lyle township. The family moved to Dane county, Wis., in 1855 and to Lyle township in 1869.
She was married at her home to William Bonnallie Aug. 30, 1882, and this continued her home during her married life. She was converted early in life and united with the Presbyterian church at Woodbury, subsequently transferring her membership to the Central Presbyterian church of Austin. She died of diabetes April 18, 1908, after an illness of two weeks.
She was a devoted Christian, a good wife, mother and neighbor. Funeral services were held in the church in London village, April 21, the church being crowded. Rev. W. E. Sloane of Austin, pastor of the deceased, preached a sermon from John 14:1. Prayer was offered by Rev. Alborn, the United Brethren pastor. The Presbyterian choir from Austin sang beautifully and the floral tributes were very fine. Interment in Woodbury cemetery.
