In 1876, Mrs. Hepworth came with her husband to Osage County, Kansas, settling near Burlingame, which has been her home since. Early in her life she united with the Baptist church, but joined the Methodist church upon arriving at Burlingame. Her unselfish devotion to her family, her friends, and the community won for her the love and esteem of all who knew her. For many years she was a member of the Woman's Relief Corps of Burlingame and after failing strength and ill health prevented her from her accustomed activities, she kept up her membership and her interest in its work. Mrs. Hepworth had remarkable vitality and although in failing health during the past year or more, she continued to manage her home and was able to be about the house until three weeks before her death. She is survived by six children, L. G. Hepworth, of Kansas City; C. H. Hepworth, vice principal of Topeka High School; Mrs. Nicholas G. Bird, Wichita; Miss Marion M. Hepworth of the University of Idaho, Moscow, Idaho; Miss Cora C. Hepworth of the home address; R. G.
