Death of Mrs Mary Bye
It is with much regret that we record the death of Mrs Mary Bye, which took place at Royston Hospital on Wednesday in last week.
The deceased had been in ill health for some time, and was removed to Royston early in November. Both Mrs Bye and her husband have lived in Wyddiall for a number of years, and have been respected by all who knew them.
Mr Bye, who is a very conscientious workman, is at present in Royston Hospital and we understand he is going on well.
The funeral of the deceased took place at St Giles' Church, Wyddiall, on Monday afternoon, when a large number of friends and relatives were present to show respect and sympathy. The coffin, which bore a place inscribed - Mary Bye, Died November 24th, 1926, Aged 69 years, was covered with flowers.
The service was conducted by the Rector, the Rev. L.W. Wright, who spoke highly of the deceased.
The immediate mourners were - Mr H. Bye and Mrs B. Woods (son and daughter), Mr W. Bye and Miss A. Bye (son and daughter), Mr F. Bye and Mrs G. Smith (son and daughter), Mr B. Woods and Mrs H. Bye (son and daughter-in-law), Mr G. Smith and Mrs W. Bye (son and daughter-in-law), Mrs C. Catley and Mrs T. Coxall (sisters), Mr and Mrs T. Coxall (brother and sister-in-law), Mr and Mrs W.

Others present were Mr H. May, Mr T. May.
Amongst the numerous wreaths was one from her sorrowing husband and children, and one from her loving sister and cousins.
