OBITUARY

Emma Pauline Hedtke was born at
Carver, Minnesota, March 80, 1870,
and passed away at Kennewick, WASH
ington, December 80, 1920. In her
youth her parents moved to Hender-
son, Minnesota, where her education
was completed and where she later
taught in the high school until her
health failed. In 1902 she obtained a
position as teacher near Ashly, North
Dakota, but she had to give up her
school work there
Robert Linn and Pauline Hedtke
We're joined in marriage on the 2Sth
day of November, 1907, and lived at
Ashly, North Dakota. In the early
part of 1920 Mrs. Linn went to hos
pital at Bismarck where she spent
some months, but failing to improve
in health they recently came to Wash
ington, hoping that the change Of
climate would check the malady that
was sapping her strength.
Since he'd youth Mrs. Linn has been
a faithful and earnest worker in the
church, and she and her husband have
always found their faith in God a
source of help and inspiration in
health and comfort and guidance in
the hours of sickness. Her beauti-
full faith was an inspiration to those
about here, and her face was glorified
as in almost her last conscious mo-
ments she said, "Jesus, I'll soon be
there"
Her expressed wish was gratified
that she might be spared to see her
daughter and her husband who were
on their way to the Mission field in
Costa Rica, Central America.
She leaves to mourn her premature
death, two brothers who are ministers
in the service of God, her husband and
five children, besides many other rel
atives and friends.
