The Telegraph-courier. [volume] (Kenosha, Wis.) 1888-1946, 1923-03-01

with her parents to Wisconsin and
settled on the farm near Powers Lake
for several years, known as the Bene-
dict farm.
In 1873 she was married to Fred H
Gleason of Bloomfield, Wis. Mr.. and
Mrs. Gleason made their home on the
Gleason farm where they remained
about thirty-one years. Here were
born their six children: Fred H.,
Charley B., Harley E., Dwight E., An
drew j., and Mrs. George Clifford. all
of whom are living in this communi-
ty.
In 1903 they moved to the present
home in Genoa Junction and enjoyed
their declining years together. Mr.
Gleason passed away about one year
ago.
Mrs. Gleason was the last of FAM
lily of six children to pass to the
Home Beyond. She was a kind, low
ing wife and mother; always patient
and untiring in her efforts. She was
mother who loved her home.
Six children, fifteen children
and a host of friends are left to
mourn her loss.
Such is the brief period of a life
well spent, yet as we read the. story
Of her years, we find it impossible to
express in our feeble words the val
ue of her life lived in our midst.
Those who knew her best will never
forget the spirit which filled her life
and lighted the lives of others.
She was woman of sublime, yet
simple faith, in God. She loved the
Psalms because of the personal spirit
and comfort found in them. Last
Christmas she asked her pastor to Sc
cure for her Bible for each of her
children, thus giving to them what
was clear treasure and a great COM
fort to her. She, with her husband,
attended church regularly up to the
time of his death about a year ago.
Her pastor bears testimony to the
JOY OF Bible study and prayer in her
home. She was woman of Christian
character and felt that she should
make public profession of her faith
and join the church. On account of
her i'll health she was unable to come
to the church, therefore her pastor,
the clerk of the church, members of
the board of trustees and friends, to-
gether with her children, assembled
IN her home Oct. 20, 1922, when she
was baptized, received into member
ship of the Congregational church,
and enjoyed the Holy Communion
service held in the home.
During her last sickness it was her
privilege and pleasure to have a nurse
with the same sublime faith in God
who daily read from His Word and
prayed for her. Although she SUI
fered greatly, her children surrounded
her with every care, always anxious
to do their utmost for her.
Thus closed a life, always opti-
mistic, patient, and faithful. She has
passed from our midst and crossed
the invisible threshold of the door
which opens before God.
Funeral services were held from
the Congregational church Sunday
afternoon. Rev. V. G. WEIGH oficiat-
ed. The remains were laid to rest in
Hillside cemetery.
