The following was taken from the Evening Kansas Republican of Oct.8th: "Miss Mary Jeanette McArthur, affectionately known as "Aunt Nettie McArthur," was born in McIndoes Falls, Vermont, Oct.9, 1847 and died in Newton, Kan. Oct. 5, 1924, lacking four days of being 77 years old. At an early age she claimed Christ as her Savior and has ever since been a consistent member of the United Presbyterian Church. In 1858 she with her father and mother, The Rev. James McArthur and wife and three brothers came to the then prairies of Henderson County, Illinois where her father helped to organize the United Presbyterian Church of Ellison and where he was pastor for about 14 years. It was during this pastorate that her mother died, leaving to mourn her death the father and seven children of whom Nettie was the eldest. Nettie, who was then 22 years old with characteristic loving and self sacrificing spirit, took the place of the mother to these children, the youngest of whom was only four years old. She gave up a college education and remained single so that she might keep the family united. Her life has been the quiet life. Ever timid and not physically strong, she has not appeared in public performances but has always kept well posted and taken a keen interest in such. In 1886 she came with her father's family to Walton, Kansas where she was a member of the United Presbyterian church until 1903 when she removed to Newton uniting with the United Presbyterian Church and making her home with her sister, Nellie, Mrs. H.A.Brush, until her death. She leaves to mourn two brothers and one sister namely: Cecil McArthur of Walton, Kan.; S. R. McArthur and Mrs. H. A. Brush of Newton, Kan.; also thirteen nephews and nieces and twelve grand-nephews and nieces. Her father and mother, two brothers and a sister preceded her to the heavenly home. A beautiful and impressive funeral service was held at the United Presbyterian Church at Newton conducted by the pastor, Rev. J.A. Harper and assisted by the deceased's old time friend and pastor, Rev. J.C. Gibney of Sunnydale.
