Mrs. Elizabeth McKay Luce, relict of the late Alonzo Luce, passed away at her home near Newville at 7:30 o'clock last Sunday evening.

With her parents she moved to Illinois in 1840, and resided in that State to 1854, when she crossed the plains with her father, Daniel McKay, who settled near Roseberg, Oregon. Three years later they came to California and located at Santa Rosa, the father opening a blacksmith shop at that place. On March 24, 1859, Miss McKay married Alonzo Luce. In 1864 Mr. and Mrs. Luce moved to the farm two miles south-west of Newville where they spent the remainder of their lives. Here Mr. Luce engaged in stock-raising and farming with a marked degree of success up to the time of his death a few months ago.
