Ferris, aged 22 years, 8 months, 17 days. The funeral was preached at the home at 1 p. m. Sunday by Rev. Johnston, to the largest funeral assemblage ever witnessed in this section. Miss Ferris was at prayer meeting Wednesday evening previous and although not feeling well was looking the picture of health to her associate and friends. It seems she had been having a kind of dumb fever at intervals for some time and taking a severe cold or lagrippe it suddenly developed into a typhoid shape and a physician was at once summoned but she only lived a few hours. The shock to the entire community was very great as very few knew of her being sick. She was an exemplary young lady and a devout Christian worker in all Christian societies. The Misses Edna Briggs, Mittie and Lena Burright, Maud Miller, Eva McGhee and Rhoda Stewart, all her associates and active members of the Epworth league, acted as pall bearers. The interment was in the Tarkio cemetery, northeast of town. Anna Rozzetta Ferris was born in Woodhull, Henry county, Ill., June 26, 1868, died Feb. 13, 1891, aged 22 years, 8 months, 17 days. She was converted Feb. 18, 1884, and joined the M. E. church Feb. 22, and has always and at all times lives a consistent Christian life. The text for the funeral sermon was in Rev., 14th chapter, 13th verse, “Blessed are the dead that die in the Lord, from henceforth.” “Yea, saith the Spirit that they may rest from their labors and their works do follow them.” “Shall we gather at the river” and “I am saved,” two of her favorite songs, were sung at the funeral and at the grave her pastor sang, “I would not live always, I ask not to stay.” Notice will be given next week of memorial services to be held by the Epworth League. [Poem not transcribed.] Mr. Ferris has been very poorly himself for several days. We learn that since the funeral, Eva, another daughter, about 17 years old, is very low with tonsillitis. This affliction is certainly very sad. Contributor: Julia Johnson (47176433) • [email protected]
