REMAINS LAID TO REST
Funeral Services Were Held Saturda,
Afternoon Over Remains of Mrs.
Mary II. Calfee.

AAs sSAASS
Saturday afternoon at 4 o'clock
occurred the funeral services over
the remains of Mrs. Mary Calfee at
the home of her daughter, Mrs. l.. d.
Test, on Fifth Avenue east.
The services were conducted by Or.
j. s.. Hoagland. assisted by DR.. j. o.
Dobson and Rev. G.. T. Notson, the
music being furnished by Misses Nor
ris. Hager. and Messrs. Watkins and
Minty. The remains were laid to
rest in Graceland cemetery, and the
following we're the pallbearers: DR..
R. j. Lamme, S. E. Morris. w. A.
Branch, d. H. Strother. F. L. Hewitt.
Mrs. Calfee, whose maiden name
was Strong, was born in Marion
county. Indiana, Sept. IL, 1929. She
was married to the late Rev. VIM.
M. Calfee. Oct. IL, 1851, and who
died AZ years ago. To this union was
born four sons and four daughters,
the eldest child, a son dying in in
fancy. Those of the children who
were present at the funeral were: w.
M. Calfee. of Oskaloosa, Iowa, Mrs.
F. S. Haines, of Riverton, Wyo., Mrs.
Minnie M. Huss, of Pedro, S. D., and
Mrs. M. Roe Test, of this city. S. w.
Calfee, of Minot, N. D., Mrs. Mary
Wiswell, of Gresham, Neb., and Rev.
w. ]. Calfee. of Kansas City, Mo-,
were unable to be present.
In the death of Mother Calfee has
passed from the mortal to the i'm
mortal one of the truest types of the
power to save to the utermost of
the religion of Jesus Christ, the 9Th
chapter of Romans being really full
filled in her life. Her mother dying
when she was but a small girl, she
took on her young life the cares of
her younger brothers and sisters.
Forgetting self and all selfish inter-
ests she entered into a sphere which
few dare to enter-that of Obscure
service for others. While that pure,
gentle, loving exterior has lived on
and on here on earth the real self
has lived in Heaven. Sorrow and dis
appointment, poverty and bereave-
ment have come and gone and
through them she has shone over
them all as a beacon light to all who
ever knew her. Simply putting into
actions the life which was within.
She " looked for the faults of
others but always their virtues. She
was loved and respected by all. Being
bereft Of her husband when her fam
lily was young, she knew all the pri-
walton of a pioneer widow-hood. Her
soul ambition for her children was
that they might grow to be good, pure
men and women, serving God and
that they might be educated so as to
be qualified to enter their different
spheres of life successfully and in
order to do so she set them the ex-
ample sss
