DEATH CLAIMS MRS.
ELIZABETH FANNIN

Sorrow enshrouded our community
January 18th when the sad news be-
came current that Mrs. Elizabeth Fan
min, one OF East Forks most beloved
pioneer ladies' had passed away. The
news of her death was received with a
feeling OF deepest regret by all who
knew her. She was born November 10,
1871. was the widow of the late Lewis
Fannin to whom she was married June
10, 1858, TO their union were born Ave
children, one OF whom, Mrs. Mary Tay
lor, preceded her in death January g.,
1901. Those living are Mrs. Eliza Nc
Gl)thlin. Mrs. Dump Kinner, John d.
and William at whose home she died.
Her consecrated christian life has been
a blessing to all around her and her
sweet influence will be only too sadly
missed. She was a faithful member of
the M. Il. Church South and when
health permitted she was rarely ever
absent from the house of worship. She
had been sick several months but was
able to be up until about New Years
day. All that loving hands and medi-
cal skill could do had been done but
God knows best and he called her home,
We do not think OF her now as an
earthly sufferer, but one who has en-
tered the golden gates where all her
sufferings are no more, The funeral
was preached at the Borrowing home
Sunday morning by Rev. II. b. Hewlett,
who paid loving tribute to her mem
DRY after which she was laid to rest on
the beautiful uncovered hill near
her home. We extend deepest sym
pathy to all the bereaved, but hers
was, in beautiful sincerity, the wish of
the poet who sang:
Sunset and evening star,
And one clear call for me:
And may there be no moaning
At the bar. when put out to sea-"
A FRIEND.
