Died-Ou Friday of last week, Ap-
ril "A, Betsy A. Belknap. former
resident Of Ransom, quietly passed
away. For several years past, she
has made her homo, mostly, with a
daughter at Oshkosh, Wis, with
whom she was staying at the time of
her death. Mother Belknap came
to Mobiles county, Minny with her
husband in. 1872, and until within
. few years made her home here
Some years ago her husband, fami]i-
arly known as Father Belknap, died
here in Ransom, and was taken to
Oshkosh for burial; and on Monday
last, his life partner was laid beside
him in the cemetery at that place.
Mother Belknap attained the ripe
old age of eighty-four years and sew
on months. Both Father and Moth
er Belknap were life long members
of the Methodist Church. They were
among tho earliest settlers in Tama
county, Iowa and when the first
Methodist church was built in what
is now Traer, the county seat, Father
Belknap contributed 500 towards
it's erection.
Mother Belknap leaves behind
three sons and four daughters. The
sons are R. II. Belknap of Worth
ington T. ]. Belknap, Of Minneapolis
and q. Belknap, of Clay county, la.
There is one daughter in California,
one in Oregon, Mrs. J. H. Scott, of
Ransom township, and Mrs. McWi]-
lams of Oshkosh Wis.,, the daughter
with whom she was staying at the
time of her death. And so it is.
One after another drops out by the
'waysids, but the vast procession
moves on without a halt; the ranks
are filed as fast as depleted, and the
great world seems neither to know
or care. But by the few who knew
Mother Belknsp, she will long be re
membered and "the memory of the
just is blessed" ROBERT SHORE. :
