en- and the Lord hath taken away.
Blessed be the name of the Lord"
Mrs. Emma Newton
Emma, daughter of Francis M.
and Catherine Kennison Darnell was
born in Windsor township, Morgan
county, Ohio, April II, 1858, and
died Feb. IL, 1922, aged 63 years,
10 months and one day. She was
one of a family of ten children, six
daughters and four sons all of whom
have passed to the great beyond ex-
cept two brothers: Francis M, who
lives on the old homestead and VIM.
S., of near Hooksburg. On Dec. II,
1879 she was united in marriage
with Washington Newton of the
same community. To them were
born three children, two daughters
and one son-Mrs. Linnie M. Barn
house of Stockport, w. Emmett of
near Pennsville. and Carrie G., of
the home, all of whom survive her.
She also leaves three grandchildren
who were near and dear to her.
In October of 1893 she gave her
heart to God and united with the
Christian church of Fairview during
the ministry OF rev. PleTco, anu HeI
faith in God and his keeping never
wavered On Feb. g, 1922 the hus-
band and father was called from
the home. At almost the same time
the mother was stricken with pneu-
monia and this added to her great
sorrow was more than her frail body
could stand, and only three days af-
ter the death of her husband, God
called her home. OF her it could be
truly said "She looketh we'll to the
ways of her household" A loving
wife, tender, thoughtful mother, a
sympathetic neighbor and friend has
gone. But her influence remains.
At this loss of father and mother, in
only three days time the hearts OF
the children are almost breaking.
But Gods will not ours be done.
We may not know why death should
come,
To take the dear ones from our
home,
And though our eyes with tears be
dim.
The Lord knows why we trust in
Him.-XN.
