Casket bearers were Grover McCall, Tom McCall, Oscar Williams, J.H. Smith, Charles Crouse and R.T. Duckworth. Interment was in Linwood park cemetery, west. Emily Lodema Hollaway, daughter of W.W. and Frankie Holloway was born at Roaring River, Wilkes Co., North Carolina, Aug. 31, 1846. Six years later Mr. Hollaway with his family moved to Boone Co., Iowa where he procured a tract of land about 6 miles southwest of Boone, the Hollaway homestead. Two brothers of the deceased still reside there. She attended the country schools and school in Boonsboro till she was 16 years of age, when she was asked to teach in the LeMaster school several miles from her home. She continued teaching until her marriage to Solomon McCall, a civil war veteran, in January 1868. Two weeks afterward they went to Missouri, near Richmond where they settled on a farm where they lived about 13 years. Then they returned to Boone county, Iowa, living on a farm southeast of Ogden till 1909, and then going to the home at 615 Harrison St., Boone, where they both passed on. Mr. McCall, April 1922 and Mrs. McCall Nov. 29, 1931. To them were born seven children, Mrs. Ida M. Kenison of Madrid, Ia.; W.V. McCall of Davenport, Ia.; Arthur of Davenport; Montgomery of New York City; Dr Almeda June Martin of Marshfield, Oregon; Mrs. Neola Torell of Seattle, Wash.; and Miss Frances Louise who lived at home with her mother. Besides her children all of whom are living, she leaves two grandchildren and two greatgradchildren, two sisters, Mrs. C.J. McCall of near Boone and Mrs. Ellen Blythe of Des Moines, the brothers on the homestead, L. Hollaway and Thomas Hollaway and many other relatives. Mrs. McCall was a quiet home loving woman, a devoted wife and mother, an earnest student of the scriptures as is evidenced by more than one well-worn Bible and many books on religious subjects. In early married life she became a member of the Presbyterian Church afterwards affiliating with the Christian Union, a pioneer church in Missouri, where her membership was retained. The life of this beloved mother is its own eulogy. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
