That was the word passed from mouth to mouth last Friday morning, and while it was not entirely unexpected, yet when it was realized that she was gone it caused many a sad heart in New Market. She was a grand woman, and here in New Market where she had spent the greater part of her life, she was loved and respected by all. Her life was spent in doing good, and her works will live long in the memory of those who knew her. Funeral services were held Sunday afternoon in the Mennonite church, conducted by the pastor, Rev Hess. Interment was in Memory cemetery. Margaret Isabell Brown was born near Hardensburg, Washington Co., Ind., April 4, 1849, and passed to her eternal reward from her home in New Market, Ia., March 11, 1921, aged 71 years, 11 month and 7 days. In the year 1854 she came with her parents to Iowa, locating first in Agency City, Wapello Co., and from there to Van Buren Co., in 1859. In 1877 she moved with her husband to Page county, and from there to Arapahoe, Neb., where they spent a number of years in pioneer life; moving back to Iowa in the spring of 1889 and locating at New Market at which place she has lived ever since. She was married March 20, 1867, to C.H. Herriman and for almost 54 years they fought the battles of life side by side; not only those of temporal care, but the spiritual conflicts as well. Their devotion to each other, not only in prime of life but in old age as well, was such as commanded the admiration of their neighbors and friends. To this union were born eleven children. Three have preceded their mother to that better land; two of these died in infancy and the other, a daughter, Mrs Maude Godfrey, formerly of this city, died Nov 5, 1905. Those surviving are B.F. Herriman of Farragut, Ia.; Mrs Edith Green of New Market, Ia; F.A. Herriman of Farragut,Ia.; Mrs Grace Corbin of Shenandoah, Ia; Mrs Glendora Duncan of Gravity, Ia; V.L. Herriman of Grand Valley, Colo; O.A. Herman of Farragut, Ia; and Mrs Cecil Groeling of Sterling, Colo., all of whom were present to witness their sainted mother's home going. Sister Herriman was converted 37 years ago and united with the Mennonite church at Shambaugh, being one of the charter members of the church at New Market. ....(part of obituary left out here)... In spite of the fact that she has been failing in health the past year her death came as a shock to her neighbors and friends not knowning of her being seriously ill. She suffered greatly the past few days but she bore her suffering patiently and longed for the end. Her last words were, "Let me go, I cannot stay,"Tis the Master calling me, farewll, farewell." She slipped away to be with Jesus Friday morning at 5:45 a.m. We will miss her hearty welcome at the door of her humble home there will be a vacant chair at the church and Sunday school services; her voice we will hear no more at the prayer meeting in praise and prayer; we will miss those helpful "Amens" and "Praise the Lord" in the course of our sermons; but our loss is her eternal gain. Besides her husband and children she leaves to mourn her departure 4 brothers, F.M. Brown of New Market, J.M. Brown of Clarinda, Stephen Brown of Clarinda, and Wise Brown of near Shambaugh, and one sister, Mrs N.J. Carter of Clarinda, twenty-three grandchildren and three great grandchildren and a host of relatives and friends. New Market Herald, Mar 17, 1921∼Along with her husband, Charles, Margaret was very active in organizing the Mennonite Brethren in Christ Church in New Market, Iowa.
