Mrs. Paul or "Grandma Paul as she was lovingly called by her family and friends, has been failing in health gradually for some time, but continued to be in her place in Sunday school and church as regularly as her strength permitted. Six weeks ago she suffered a fall, and while Injured but slightly, seemed unable to rally from the effects of the shock in her weakened condition. She has gradually grown weaker from that time until the end. Everything that could possibly be done to make her last days comfortable and happy has been done, and she went peacefully to sleep and to rest. Funeral services were held in the Methodist church at 2:00 o'clock yesterday afternoon, with her pastor, Rev. J. A. Farnham conducting the service. Appropriate hymns were sung by R. O. Lindskoog, Mr and Mrs Harry Hanson, and Miss Minnie Kessler, with Mrs. J. L. Bruce as accompanist. She was carried to her last resting place in the Odebolt cemetery by the side of her husband by six grandsons: Arloe, Veryl, Lyle, Archie and Milton Paul, and Walton Sargesson. Hannah Biddick was the oldest daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Mathew Biddick, and was born in St. Issey Parish, Cornwall, England July 15, 1844. At her death she had reached the age of eightyseven years, two months, and twenty-seven days. The family came to the United States In 1850, settling first in Platteville, Wis, later moving to the town of Mifflin. In the fall of 1865 she was united In marriage with William C. Paul at Platteville, and In 1871 they moved to Concord township, Harden county, Iowa. They were the first settlers In this township In the spring of 1893 the family moved to Wheeler township, this county, locating on the farm now occupied by her son, C. A . Paul In 1901 Mr. and Mrs. Paul retired from the farm life and moved to town, to the home where Mrs. Paul has since lived. The following year, November 6, 1902, Mrs. Paul lost her companion, and her home has been with her son, M. H. Paul and family. Mrs. Paul was the mother of five children, four of whom grew to maturity, Ella (Mrs. Payne Sargesson), Charles A. Allie J., Harry W., and Myron H. Only Charles and Myron, both of Odebolt, survive. There are twenty-six grandchildren, and fourteen great grandchildren, and two aged sisters. All of the grandchildren except six were at the funeral. In early womanhood Mrs. Paul united with the primitive Methodist church In Platteville. When they moved to Iowa, there being no church In the community, they helped to organize a Sunday school In a school house. When they came to this county they became members of the Methodist church, and Mrs. Paul has continued faithful to her church throughout her long life. She was a loved member of the Women's Bible class, and of the Missionary societies, and could always be depended on for the support of all departments of the church work, giving her presence whenever possible. The following .words written as the obituary for the mother of Mrs. Paul, were read by Rev. Mr. Farnham at the service. Every word could be said of our loved "Grandma Paul. "As a Christian she was consistent in her profession, being a devoted follower of her Lord and Master. She was always at her post if possible. The religion which she professed shed its hallowed beams on the actions of her life, Not only on Sundays, but also on week days. Her life exemplified the Grace of God. Neither summer nor winter knew any alteration of her mind. She pressed toward the mark for the prize. She improved the short days of her life, and at last gained the "Well Done" of her father in heaven. As a wife and mother, she was worthy of imitation. She did her duty to her family, always seeking their happiness and comfort. As a neighbor she was beloved and esteemed by all who knew her and those who knew her best, knew best how to value her friendship. As a church we feel that one of our faithful members has fallen. A mother in Israel is gone and we deeply fee our loss. Relatives from out of town who were here for the funeral were Etolle Paul from Des Moines, Arloe Paul from Ames, Thelma Paul from Cedar Falls, Veryl Paul from Sioux City, Mr. and Mrs John Reilly, Mr. and Mrs. Paul Sargesson, Minneapolis, Mrs. Ted Reilly of Merrill, Mrs C.
