The deceased, whose maiden name was Elizabeth Lange, was born in Germany, on March 8, 1858, and she has made her home in this section of Nebraska for nearly a half century. When a young lady in her teens she arrived in Dodge, and a few years later she was married to Peter Christ. There they resided only a short time when they moved into Stanton County, north of Howells, and made their permanent home in this community. She was one of those sturdy pioneer women who suffered much privations in the early days when hard efforts were put forth in transforming the sunkissed prairies into fertile farms. She always held a kindly attitude toward life and met its joys with an appreciative heart, its vicissitudes with cheerful optimism and saw good in all God's people. Her death is mourned by eight children, namely, Mrs. Anna Wahl of near Leigh; Augusta, wife ofEmil Blecha; Fredericka, wife of Ben Remm; Lena, wife of Henry Thalken of near Clarkson; Dorothy, wife of Arthur Borgstahl of Circle, Montana; Emma Christ and August Christ, and two step-children. Henry Christ and Lizzie, wife of John H. Meyers. She also leaves twenty-eight grandchildren and two great-grandchildren; one brother, Mr. Lange at Dodge, and several sisters residing in Germany. Her husband preceded her in death about four years ago. The funeral is to be held from the family home. Services will be conducted by Rev. Norden and interment will be made in the Lutheran Cemetery in Stanton County.
