A TOKEN OF RESPECT

Mrs. Jane Smith, the wife of Alexander Smith, died April 19th, She was born in 1804 and married in 1825, In the fall of 1830, moved to Randolph Co. and from there to Chariton Co. where she has resided ever since, seeing her posterity to the third generation. For 64 years she was a member of the Baptist Church.

Some of her.... who put their trust in God. In her last hours she reached her hand up as if trying to get something, and being asked what she had seen, she said "Myra and her brother". They are her children that had passed away several years ago.

She was respected by the comunity in which she lived. She was 82 years of age, leaves a husband and seven children to mourn her loss, but they mourn not those who have no hope. Blessed are the dead who die in the Lord. Their sorrows are ended, the battle has been fought,and the victory won. The remains of the deceased were interred in the Bee Branch (Fitzgerald Cem.) Graveyard. A goodly number of her acquaintances were in attendance, both at the house and at the grave. The funeral was conducted by Rev. James Hise and an appropriate prayer was offered which seemed to impress many with sorrow to think they had been called to pay the last tribute of respect to their sister, and they too must soon, like her, be laid in the tomb.

Her days of weary suffering o'er

Laid she every burden down

Passed over to the brighter shore,

To wear in heaven a crown.

A number of years ago he was converted in a union meeting at Downer School House and united with the Baptist Church. Bro. George lived an honorable, upright, Christian life, and has gone to that land, cut by no wintery blast, appalled by no hurling tempest, to wait at the harbor of the wing sheltered bay of God's everlasting love for his loved ones.

Funeral services were conducted by the writer at Mt. Zion Church Monday at 11:00 o'clock in the presence of his multitude of friends.

Interment took place at the Johnson Cem."

Notes for LILLIAN VERNELL BAILEY:

5 JUN 1914, Chariton Co. newspaper obit.

Mrs Estel Lake, a bride of less than two months, met death by drowning at Sterling, Colorado, Sunday evening. The accident followed a day's outing on the banks of a big reservoir (North Sterling Reservoir). The party came to an irrigation ditch which it was necessary to cross on a plank, a foot wide and three inches thick. The ditch was about ten feet wide and fifteen feet deep, through which water ran like a mill race. Many people had crossed safely but just before Estel Lake reached the bank the board snapped and his young wife, who was following him fell into the torrent dragging him with her. The water was ice cold and the shock numbed the faculties of both, but Lake made heroic efforts to swim to the bank with his wife. A rope was thrown to their aid, but it was too short. The current finally swept Mrs. Lake from her husbands grasp, and she was carried rapidly down the stream.

Charles Bailey, the young woman's brother plunged to her aid, but was unable to stop her. Another man jumped into the ditch, but he, too, was powerless. The body was finally washed over a shallow bar into a pool twenty feet deep, where it disappeared, and was only recovered with a grab hook after life had passed away.

The remains were brought to Marceline for burial, accompanied by the young woman's husband and brother. The funeral services will be conducted at the home of her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Bailey, near Bynumville, today. Her maiden name was Miss Lillie Bailey, and she was married to Estel Lake, April 6, 1914. She was eighteen years old.

It has only been about two months since funeral services were conducted for Mrs. Charles Bailey, who was brought here from Colorado in failing health, which adds to the general sorrow of the neighborhood over this tragic occurrence.

Buired at the Johnson Cemetry, Bynumville, MO
