Her husband, five children and two brothers, D. P. Foster and U. E. Foster are left to mourn her untimely departure. To know Mrs. Scott was to love her. Her nature was naturally undemonstrative; she never made a parade of her virtures. Truely she worn the ornament of a meek and quiet spirit, which is in the sight of God of great price. She was advoted Christian woman , true as a friend, considerate and kind as a neighbor, tender and faithful as wife and mother. Trials and sickness and pain she bore with patience and fortidude, from fearfulness and anger she was peculiarly free. Her cheerfulness and patience were truly remarkable and these traits of character were most seen in her by those who knew her best. A tender, patient, noble Christian woman has passed from amoung us. Her neighbors, her friends and her family rise up to call her blessed. She had been sick since last October. The funeral was held at the family residence in Dover township Sunday July 17, at 2 p.m. and was conducted by Rev. Leonard A. Swisher of the Methodist Church of West Union.
