Mrs. Rudolph Stolte Dead.

Died at her home in Dover
on Tuesday, Sept. 10, Mrs. Mary
Amelia Stolte. Her maiden
name was Ritter. She was
born in Marthasville, Warren
County, Mo, on the 18th of De-
tober, 1852. On June 81, 1870,
she was married to Rudolph
Stolte. Seven children were
born to them, only two of which
survive her, Mrs. Rely Nelson
and Arthur Stolte, both of
Dover. Mr.. Static also is left
to miss her pleasant companion
ship. Early in life Mrs. Stolte
realized the need of a Savior's
love and confessed His name,
and in her life came many sor-
rows, bereavements that left
their scars on the dear mother
heart, but through them all her
faith never wayered, realizing
that "whom God loveth He
chasteneth. For many years
her health had been gradually
failing, but it was only the last
few months she was compelled to
give up the active duties Of life,
but even then she did not com
plain but bore her suffering with
true Christian resignation, seem
mgly forgetful of self, but even
thoughtful of those around
her. For the smallest kind
ness shown her during her i'll
ness she never forget to express
her gratitude. Her religion
was the deep earnest kind that
made her try to live and be
a pure, loving, unseIfish woman
whose companionship and help
full influence will linger as a
sweet memory in the hearts of
those with whom she came in
closest touch as wife and moth
er, neighbor and friend. Her
funeral services was preached at
the Methodist church in Dover
by Rev. Samuel Bubner Of Hig-
ginsville. The text was her
own selection-the fourth verse o.
the twenty-seventh psalm. Bur.
ial was made at Mt. Hope GENE.
