Obituary..

July 20 1911, at her residence
in Keytesville, the grim reaper
called and Mrs. Charles Parker
answered the final summons. She
had been stricken two weeks be-
fore with pneumonia, and despite
the constant attention OF a skilled
physician and minis trations of q
q trained nurse, she was forced to
relinquish her hold on life, realiz-
ing which she gave direction in
deta Of oil she wished done, and
repeated the Lords Prayer for her
last words on earth. Dorothy
Phillips, daughter OF Mr.. and
Mrs. j. A. c. Phillips, was born
in Charlton County, Missouri,
June 5, 1864. Married TO Riley
Wilks in 1854 VITO died in 1850,

and Charles Parker whom she
married in 1896. survive her.
Dorothy Parker, as she was famil-
iarly known joined the Baptist
church during early girlhood and
was baptised in the Baptist faith
at Dawkins Mill. On her re-
moval TO Keytesvilla, she united
with the Baptist church here by
letter, and died in the church and
the faith which rendered her last
hours less torturous to her than to
any who witnessed her departure.
Mrs. Parker's energy, charitable
ness, domestic life and love for
her family were Distinguishing
characteristics, and her attach
ment to those she loved as strong
as love could make il In
the disposition Of her worldly ei-
fects, several for whom she ebert
