SHE CAME HERE FIRST IN 1863 And Whole Life, with Exception of About One Year Has Since Been Spent in Cass Co. From Friday's Daily -- Yesterday afternoon at the Immanuel hospital in Omaha, Mrs. P. E. Ruffner passed away, after being at the hospital but a few days. She was first taken sick on last Sunday evening, and was taken to the hospital at Omaha on Tuesday night, when she immediately underwent an operation for acute appendicitis. After the operation she rallied and apparently was making progress, but later took a turn for the worse yesterday afternoon, and passed away about four o'clock. There were present at the bedside of Mrs. Ruffner at the time she passed away, her husband and Mrs. Kirkpatrick and Mrs. Reed, sisters of this good woman. Besides the immediate family, Mrs. Ruffner leaves these two sisters, Mrs. E. A. Kirkpatrick, of Nehawka, and Mrs. M. C. Reed of Omaha, one brother, Robert Black, of this city. In addition to the parents, who have passed away, there were also two brothers, deceased, they being E. W. and J. N. Black. They once lived here, but moved to other parts previous to their deaths, which occurred but a few years ago. Mrs. Ruffner's maiden name was Agnes Black, and she was born at Charidon, Marion county, Ohio, on April 25, 1852, being exactly sixty-six years old on the day she died. When but a small girl she came with her parents, Dr. John N. Black and wife to deKalb, Mo., where they remained until 1863, coming to Plattsmouth in September of that year. On September 7, 1870, Miss Black was united in marriage with P. E. Ruffner, and the following year they lived at Crete, returning then to Plattsmouth, where they have lived ever since. To this happy union were born five boys and one girl, one of the boys dying in infancy. The other boys are all living and are Will Ruffner, who is employed by the Oregon Navigation company, at North Yakima, Washington; Sperry Ruffner, of Omaha, where he is engaged with a wholesale grocery concern; Edgar G. Ruffner, of Obert, where he is engaged in the lumber business, and Horace Ruffner of Omaha. Mrs. Roy Dodge, who died in Omaha a few years ago was the only daughter of this union. The deceased united early in life with the Presbyterian church and has remained loyal to her faith, always living a devout Christian life. She was intensely interested in the work of the Women's Christian Temperance Union, and had arranged for a jubilee meeting of that order in this city on last Monday, at which time the order was to make some blankets for the Soldiers home at Milford. It was on account of the sudden illness of Mrs. Ruffner, who was president of the local society, that the meeting was deferred until some future date instead of being held as she had planned. Mrs. Ruffner has lived an upright, righteous life, and to have known her was to admire her convictions of the right. At the present time no definite arrangements have been made for the funeral, on account of no response having yet been received to the telegram sent to her son, William, who is at North Yakima, Washington. Whatever the arrangements may be, will be published in tomorrow's issue of the Journal.
