Blessed Jesus, Give Thine own beloved sleep." And so he came to Frances Mae (Petsel) Bell, during the early hours of Wednesday morning, perhaps even before she awoke from her natural sleep, and said sleep on and take thy rest. How well she fell asleep! Like some proud river widening toward the sea; Calmly and grandly, silently and deep, Life joined eternity. Mrs. Bell was born in Washington Co., near Riverside, on the 2nd day of January, 1879, and departed this life on Wednesday morning, March 11, at the age of 35 years, 2 months and 9 days. The greater portion of her life was spent in the vicinity of Lone Tree. She was united in marriage to James H. Bell on April 2, 1905. To them were born four children—two boys and two girls. In October, 1905 she united with the Reformed church, of which she was a member at the time of her death, and to which she gave such service and devotion as her strength and home duties would permit. She leaves to mourn her death, her husband and four children, her mother and stepfather, seven brothers and four sisters, besides many other relatives and a host of friends. Of her temperments and kindly disposition little need be said, for they are so well known. To her home she gave herself with unstinted devotion; a true wife and mother. There is where her loss will be most keenly felt. And yet who could deny her, "Life's race well run, Life's work well done, Life's crown well won, Now comes rest." The funeral service was held in the Reformed church on Friday afternoon at two o'clock. Rev. J. F. Hawk officiated. The body was laid to rest in the Lone Tree cemetery.
