Spicer, one of the best known pioneer mothers of this West River country, was called by death shortly after 12:00 o'clock last Wednesday evening, following an illness of about two weeks duration, though not having enjoyed good health for the past four or five years. The deceased came to the Missouri river area of the two Dakotas with her husband and family in 1893 and has resided and pioneered in several communities during that time, always sharing with others the hardship and joy of pioneer life in those communities; always having helped to make each a little better place to live. For the past year or more the husband and wife have made their home in Morristown, and for more than 20 years prior to that on their ranch north of Morristown on the Cedar River. Agnes Jane Smith, daughter of Isabella and John Smith, was born March 8, 1862, in Holstein, Ontario, Canada and was the eldest of a family of six children, and the first of that number to end her earthly pilgrimage and meet her loved ones in the Great Beyond. Her girlhood was spent in the community in which she was born and it was there that she was received into membership in the Presbyterian church. On January 8, she was united in marriage to J. H. Spicer and became the foster mother of his two mother-less sons, one of whom preceded her in death while still in his youth. To this union four children were born, three daughters and one son. The son having preceded his mother in death. Though having been a devout member of the Presbyterian faith all her life, in late years, the privilege of attending its services were denied her, due to impaired hearing, but her Christian faith shone through her good works. The deceased is survived by her husband John H. Spicer, and three daughters, Mrs. John Percy of Pine City, Minn.; Mrs. Otis Anderson, of Lemmon, S. D., and Mrs. Lyle Sutliff of Paradise, N. D., and one son, Charles Spicer of Watauga, S. D. Also four brothers and one sister, all of whom reside in Canada together, with twelve grandchildren and a host of friends and neighbors who will mourn the passing of this pioneer mother. Funeral services were held from the Presbyterian church in Morristown at 1:00 p. m. on Saturday with the Rev. Born, pastor of the McIntosh church, officiating. Interment was made in the Morristown cemetery. Favorite hymns of the deceased were sung by Mrs. Scott and Mrs. Highby, with Mrs. Batzer accompanying. Note:12/17/34
