Anderson took its flight from the body to that great unknown world. Mrs. Anderson was stricken with apoplexy last Thursday and suffered most excruciating pain up until about twenty-four hours before her death relieved her suffering. Mrs. Anderson was well known to almost every family in Newton, having resided here a number of years. She united with the Baptist church twenty years ago and has been a consistent member ever since. Her true Christianty was shown by her many kind and charitable deeds: she was ever ready to lend a helping hand in distress and has done much for the poor and depraved, as well as many noble works in the various benevolent societies of the city. She leaves a husband and five children, three sons and two daughters to mourn her untimely loss. She was 41 years, 7 months, and 7 days old, and has always enjoyed good health. Why one who is doing so much good should be taken away in the prime of life is known only to Him who rules the universe. The funeral was held yesterday at 2:30 o'clock, and was largely attended by relatives and friends. The services were conducted at the Baptist church, which was filled to its utmost capacity. Rev. A. G. Sawin officiated and delivered a very able and impressive discourse from John 19-41. A large concourse of friends followed the remains to the grave, where was laid to rest the body of one who had been a loving wife, a kind mother, and one of sterling worth in the community in which she lived. Newton Kansan Feb. 4, 1892 Front Page Side note: Mary's death is recorded as Jan. 30, 1892 in the Newton Kansan and also in the book at Greenwood Cemetery. I believe a mistake was made on the gravestone.
