Mrs. Shute's mother and her broth

DR.. Shute wishes an expression of
appreciation for the manner in which
the people and the church aided ev-
cry way in rendering assistance and
in relieving the family from care and
responsibility so far as was possible
during the sickness and funeral serv-
ices Of Mrs. Shute.
ss. Nellie Haney Shute.
Nellie Haney was born at Marietta,
Fulton county, ILL.,, March 81, 1863,
being the Oldest of four children OF
the Rev. James William Haney, d. D.,
and -.4rs. Elizabeth Haney. Her faith
er was a son of the Rev. Richard Ha-
ney, d. d., whose father was the Rev.
James Haney; and her mother was
a great-granddaughter of Roger Sher-
man, one of the signers of the Dec
laration of Independence. She was
the daughter, granddaughter, great
granddaughter, niece, cousin, sister
and wife Of preachers of the Gospel
Of her Saviour-nearly all Of them
Methodists. '1m
After twenty-four years of itinerat-
ing in the home OF her father, leading
the active life of a girl intensely in
terested in the work of her father in
the church, she was united in holy
matrimony to the Rev. A. Lincoln
Shute at Canton. ILL.,, June IS, 1887.
Her next Oldest sister was married on
the same day, the twenty-fifth ami
versary Of the marriage Of her father
and mother. This made a triple we'd
ding, the grandfather, the Rev. Rich
ard Haney, D. d., officiating.
Her father entered upon his reward
in April, 1900. Her mother, though
in very poor health, attempted to
reach her before her departure, but
arrived eighteen hours too late. Her
brother, the Rev. Richard S. Haney.
Of Moline, ILL.,, came with the mother
on the first notice OF serious illness.
The sister married Oh the same day
with her is Mrs. Adaline Sophia Rich
ards, wife of Mr.. Will V. Richards Of
Moline, ILL.,, which place is also the
home of her mother. The youngest
sister, Mary Leslie Ioder, is the wife
Of the Rev. Alvin f. Ioder of Ell Paso,
III.
Mrs. Shute was the mother of six
children, four boys and two girls. Her
first born, Lewis 'Haney Shute, lies
in the old County Line cemetery, New
York state, in the long line Of those
of his name and immediate family
buried in that ground. Another boy,
Harold James Shute, lies in the same
lot with her father in Moline, Ill.,,
where her body, too, will await the
glorious resurrection day. These
both went home in infancy. The
children who live to appreciate the
blessings OF one of the best mothers
that ever blessed a home with her
holy benediction are, Vivian Lizzie. a
senior in Fargo college, Fargo, N. d.,
Zelna Lucia, a freshman in the same
college, DIN Yates, a junior in the
Bismarck High school and Clarence
William age 8, in the Fourth grade Of
the Bismarck schools.
That person is yet to be found who
met and came to know Mrs.
Shute who did not love her. Hers vas
a charming personality, simple, holy,
and u~nassuming. In all the work OF
her husband, in the strenuous service
and oftime battles connected with the
work of the Christian ministry, he
never lacked the encouragement and
support of this most helpful conpan-
ion of his life and service. Even if
danger threatened, she would say af-
:er it was over, 81 would have been
ashamed of You if you had not gone.
# you had been brought home to me
lead, ! would not have had you do
Her whole soul and life
we're given in absolute devotion to her
4ord and Master and Saviour and His
Kingdom. She desired nothing but
His glory and the salvation Of men
sin.
Through most of her life she was a
Of splendid health and great
