Mr. and Mrs. Jeff Thompson spent last week at the home of J. T. Thompson. November 10, 1917, Saturday, Cassville Democrat, Barry Co., MO Obituary As the flowers wither and fade and the leaves fall from the trees so does life fade and carry with it its beauties to a spirit land of delight for well spent lives that leave a record for the loved ones to imitate while sojourning on earth with a promise for a future state of happiness in the happy beyond, where a father will await their arrival with a loving greeting. James T. Thompson passed away Dec. 10, 1917, at 2:45 a. m., at his home near Eagle Rock, Mo., aged 77 years 4 months and one day. He was surrounded by aged wife, two daughters and one son and friends. He was born at Louisville, Kentucky, Aug. 15, 1840, moving with the family to Prairie City, Ill., where he met and married Emley Edmondson Nov. 29, 1854, residing there a short time - then moved to North Missouri; then to Kansas; then soon after they moved to oak Hill, Ark. In 1800, they moved to Barry County, where they have since lived. Of this marriage, 12 children were born of whom nine are living. They are Mrs. Susie Davidson, of Parson, Kansas, Mrs. Mary Doshiny of Marlow, Okla., Mrs. Julia Callaway, Hershey, Neb., Mrs. Carrie Raines, of Washburn Prairie and Miss Clara who has stayed at home and care for age parents. Alex Thompson of Stites, Idaho, Jim Thompson of Lexington, Okla., Sam Thompson of Maysville, Okla., and Jeff Thompson, of near Eagle Rock, Carrie, Clara and Jeff were the only ones present, on account of living so far away and the weather being so bad.

He was a member of the Christian Church; funeral service conducted at the home Monday evening at 1:o'clcock by Rev. Ed. Vanderpool. The remains were laid to rest in Munsey Cemetery, to await a sweet resurrection. A home is darkened, a loving and affectionate husband and father called from a devoted wife and children whose heart strings are bleeding from grief and sorrow. He had been in failing health since last May. He believed he was going, called his wife and children to his bedside, one by one and took them by the hand, bid them goodbye - said he was going home and was prepared to go and would soon be across the River, told them he seen Lizzie; she being his youngest daughter, the wife of Ed Hilton, who passed away six years ago last July. He has attended the last roll call on earth, but will answer in heaven, when the last roll is called over there. December 29, 1917, Saturday, Cassville Democrat
