Obituary.

Barbara Ellen Offut, the beloved
wife of ClementL Offut, departed
this life February Goth 1908. She
was born on the 25th day of Jany.
1870, making her age at death 38
years and a days. She was con-
verified to God in the year 1892, but
owing to the many peculiar notions
about teaching the gospel, she
thought it best not to identify her
self with any special branch of the
church. but her life stood out clear
in evidence that she was indeed
adopted into the Spiritual family Of
God. Her life was beausiful; her
experience WAS real and sublime.
She was married to Clement L.
Offut Oct. 31st 1891. To this nm.
ion were born seven children; all
living except tue baby girl, that
passed away with it's mother at its
birth. She leaves six children and
q lonely husband to follow on aud
meet her by and by in the skies.
Husband and children, you can
do no better; you can hope for Meth
ing nobler than to meet wife and
mother in the Great Beyond. Let
us all live that we may have the
blessed assurance of meeting where
parting will be no more.
May Gods blessings rest upon
this bereaved husband and mother
less children.
