Deceased leaves two sons, Amasa Pray of San Francisco, Fred H. Pray of this city, and two daughters. Mrs. Minnie Bancroft and Mrs. Fanny Hobbs of Berkeley. She was born in Berwick, Maine. The Palmer drug store property, as well as the home on Union St. belonged to Mrs. Pray, the latter place having been her home for many years.
