To this union were born six sons, two of whom are now members of the Scioto annual conference. One son preceded her to the spirit world. She was converted at the age of nineteen and joined the United Brethren church and remained a faithful member until death. She was truly an ideal itinerant's wife. She was a woman of great faith and full of hope. No matter how pressing the circumstances at home she would say, "Go to your work, husband, the Lord will provide for us." Shs was a great sufferer for a number of years with the dread disease catarrh. As she came near the end, she expressed a desire to depart and be with Christ, which is far better. She leaves to mourn a husband, five sons one step son and other relatives and many friends. By a request of the deceased the funeral was conducted by the writer.
