Death of Mrs. Thornton.

Emily c. Warner was born May S,
1929, at Angelica, N. Y. She was
married to Cuyler c., Helm, July 3,
1849 They came to Monticello, Iowa
in 1865 where her husband died in
1866. Four children we're born to
this union, two dying in infancy.
Those living are Mrs. Sarah Crandall
Of Clinton, Minn., and Geo. R. Helm
of Cedar Rapids, Iowa. In 1859 she
removed to Sioux Co., Iowa, and later
to Virginia Twp, Union Co., So. Oak.
Here she was married to Serrill
Thornton, Sr., in 1872 and here they
resided until the death Of Mr.. Thorn
ton which occurred in 1894.
For the last four years she has lived
at the home of her stepson, Serrill G.
Thornton OF Canton, So Oak. Mrs.
Thornton united with the NJ. e.
Church in 1857 and was consistent
member of the same until her deaJh.
In her last illness she suffered from
stroke Of paralysis. Her extreme
age and frail constitu tion prevented
all hope Of her recovery. Patient
hands ministered to her comfort so
far as possible even to the last, but
gradually she became weaker until
the lamp of life flickered out Wednes-
day morning at 3 O'Clock Feb. 25th,
1914.
Short funeral services were held at
the home of Serrill G. Thornton on
Saturday morning conducted by Rev.
Thurston. Her son, Mr.. George r.
Helm from Cedar Rapids, Iowa, was
in attendance with the relatives In
Canton and many friends. The re-
mains were taken to Hawarden, Ia,
where they were laid to rest. The
many friends Of the bereaved extend
their heartfelt sympathies.

gregations to about 700 at the present
time. In place of the two little wood
en- churches Of few years ago, now
towers beautiful and commodious
granite structure rejecting great
credit upon the enterprise and initi-
alive OF both congregation and pastor.
During Rev. Tetlie's pastorate in
Canton he has baptized 523 children,
confirmed 467 young people, oficiated
at the marriage of 174 and at the
burial Of 1876.
Besides taking care of the ever in
creasing duties connected with con-
gregational work, Rev. Tetlie has
taken cummendable interest In all
matters that pertain to the church
at large. When Augustana College
was erecting its new buildings on its
present site, Rev. Tetlie was one of
the most persistent and aggressive
workers in the raising of the required
funds. and did much towards mah ing
the enterprise success. The Or
phans' Home at Beloit, Iowa, has
found in him staunch friend and
supporter, and the congregation has
come to look upon that institution as
part of itself.
A constant friend of Home and
Foreign Missions Rev. Tetlie has al
ways held up the needs of this branch
of church work, and would not even
permit the congregation to slacken
up during the years they we're build
ing and liquidating large church
debt.
The cause of temperance has al
ways found in Rev. Tetlie consist
ant advocate, and he has never lost
an opportunity TO combat the liquor
traffic publicly or privately. The
friends OF emperance in the city Of
Canton could always count on the
hearty cooperation of Rey. Tetlie In
keeping saloons from gaining foot
hold within its limits.
Both Mr.. and Mrs Tetlie have
gained host of friends amorg their
many associates by their simple, un.
assuming manners, their sincere and
consistent Christian life, their un-
bounded hospitality, and their quick
sympathy for every one In trouble or
distress. They have raised in our
midst splendid family of boys that
might easily be the envy OF many .
less fortunate mother or father.

Not one who witnessed the play of

has been lodged against Beckner, but

is willing at any time to live with her
if. he says. her relatives will permit
her to come to him.
Governor CruCe told attorneys he
considered the case a family row and
that lie would not honor the requisl-

to again live with his wife. The gov
ernor postponed final action until he
can look more fully into the case.
According to the story related to
