Galloway of the Baptist Church of Malvern. A large number of old friends and neighbors of the deceased were present to attend the last sad rites over the remains of the one they had known and loved so long. Many beautiful flowers testified to the esteem in which she was held. A special choir from the Malvern M. E. Church, Mesers R. W. Criswell and Fred Stone, Miss Vera Stone, and Miss Liva Richards sang. The pall bears were Mesers J. F. Martin, R. S. McDough, Geo. D. Keffer, H. E. Boyor, C. B. Christy, and George Schurr. The remains were laid to rest in the beautiful cemetery in Malvern. Christenia Addy was born in Ross County, Ohio, May 2, 1854 and died at her home in White Cloud April 12, 1917. She came with her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Isaac Addy to Deer Creek township in 1869 and thus as a mere girl she was introduced to the hardships of pioneer life. She was united in marriage to L. H. McFarland at Hastings, Iowa in July 1871. Mr. McFarland being a farmer, the first years of their marriage life were spent on a farm near Strahan, but later they moved to a farm now owned by Pearl Cary northwest of Hastings. By economy and hard work this worthy couple soon had a savings account and in the Spring of 1882 they purchased the present home farm where they have since resided. To this union were born four children, Mrs. Anna Piburn, Mrs. Mary Kelley, Henry, and Isaac. These have all married and settled almost with sight of the old home and they have been a great help and comfort to the deceased in the trying days of her last illness. She united with the Baptist Church in Malvern thirty eight years ago. In later years she became a member of the United Brethern Church at White Cloud. Besides her immediate family she leaves six grandchildren and one great grandchild, five brothers and a sister, the names of the latter being, William and Rhodes Addy of Imogene, H. C. Addy of Hemingford, Nebraska, Geo. Addy of Dallas, South Dakota, M. W. Addy of Pattonburg, Missouri, and Mrs. Julius Black of Shenandoah, Iowa. Mrs. McFarland was a woman much given to prayer and her trust and devotion were marked though out her life. Her first thought was always for her children and for them she prayed and planned. When they married and left the home nest it was her desire that they settle near the old home and in the later years her wish came true for they all had homes within walking distance of the homestead overlooking the beautiful Botna Valley. Not only did she have them near her, but her prayers were also answered in that they were all confessed followers of the Master whom she had so long served. It had been her oft expressed which that she might be called before any of her family and in this also God gave her her hearts desire. Assuming the responsibilities of life at an early age, she has held unflinchingly to her tasks with a true mother's devotion. Tho called before the span of ears had reached the three scores and ten still we know that the years she lived have encompassed task great and small and who can say that such an active life is not complete. The entire community extend heartfelt sympathy to this father, these sons and daughters and the many relatives and our united prayers is that all may meet the loved ones on that golden shore where parting and sorrow shall be no more.
