The Rushden Argus, 19th May 1893, transcribed by Kay Collins
Bozeat-Obituary—The Independent Wesleyan Church in this village has lately lost one of its oldest members, Catherine James, who was called away at the ripe age of 78. It was thought that the occasion should not pass by without some mention being made of it. Accordingly Mr. Wallis was requested to hold a service, and this took place on Sunday evening. The preacher based an appropriate discourse on Hebrews iv., 9, "There remaineth, therefore, a rest to the people of God" and he closed by relating a few particulars concerning the life of the deceased, stating that she had maintained her Christian integrity for nearly 60 years, and died in the faith.
