brothers and sisters had preceded her
In the then newly settled state her
services as a teacher were in rood de-
mand, and in the townships of Fremont,
Bluffton and Orleans in Winnesheik
county, and Vernon Springs and How
ard county. Nearly all the scholars
from 1861 to 1880 will remember her as
a teacher who faithfully sought to in
culcate good morals together with a
good, practical knowledge of the com
mon branches of learning, and in after
years she was proud tie see so macy of
her scholars fill places of honor and
usefulness.
She was married to Orrin C. Rogers
Nov. 25, 1875, who died Jan l6, 1884.
The last twenty-five years of her life
were spent in Cresco where with one
of her nieccs, Miss Minnie Porter, she
established so pleasant and quiet a
home that 1t became at different times
an asylum for three of her aged
brothers and one brother-in-law who
We're left widowers. Two of her
brothers died at her home at the ages
respectively Of II and 81.
In June, 1905, she received a paralytic
stroke which SO affected her left side
as to make her unable to walk without
assistance and for the last five years
she has gradually grown worse, and
for the last year she has been confined
to her bed perfectly helpless.
Her niece Miss Porter, proved her
self to be treasure, nursing and car
ing for her aunt with the greatest pa
tience and tenderness and no one could
do for her ''as we'll as Minnie.
At last the end came peacefully.
After so much suffering the battle of
life is ended and Mrs. Rogerss at rest.
She died Sunday, Jan. 10, 1910, at Is p.

AT the age of IS she became mem
Der of the Protestant Episcopal church

| Iowa she did not connect herself with
any denominatonal church but always
remained a Strong believer in the bible,
fully realizing its truths and was well
versed in both the old and new testa-
ments.
Her greatest pleasure consisted in
rehearsing the beautiful stories con
tained therein to her little and big
