Although at times her sufferings were intense she constantly manifested a cheerful disposition and had a pleasant greeting for every one and bore her own afflictions without a murmer. She always manifested a deep concern in the well being and happiness of others. Interment in the Indian Prairie cemetery at 2 o'clock Saturday. Service conducted by Rev. J. B. Littell.
