Mrs. Bennett was born at Wolf Lake, Indiana, December 11, 1851. She was united in marriage to Elias Bennett of Hecla, Indiana, October 20, 1872. Thirty years ago they came to Sioux City and she has spent most of her life near Leeds and James, excepting one year spent in Minnesota. Besides the bereaved husband, She is survived by one daughter, Mrs. Bert Hancock of Westfield, Iowa, two sons J. W. Bennett of Hinton, Iowa, M. E. Bennett of Ethan, S. D., another son died in infancy. Also two sisters; Mrs. James Martin of Leeds, and Mrs. George Bennett of Sioux City. Two brothers Jonah and J. W. Evans of Spooner, Wis., besides fourteen grandchildren to whom she was much attached. Mrs. Bennett was a patient sufferer. She was taken to a Sioux City hospital three times in the past two years and underwent three operations, which gave her only temporary relief. She was able to be about her home and help a little with her house work until about six weeks ago when she became helpless and had to be lifted up and down from her chair to her bed several times each day. Two days before she died she became unconscious and did not recognize anyone about her. She had the best of care but her Heavenly Father had called her. She was a devoted mother and loving wife. There was no appealing and worthy cause that did not find ready response from her heart and hands as many friends and neighbors can freely testify yet underlying all was an innate love for family and home for which no sacrifice could be to great and in whose behalf all toil was pleasure. While it is there she will be most missed and mourned her sad taking away comes as a personal loss to the many who held and valued her friendship and acquaintance and they mingle their sorrow with that of the bereaved family. Funeral services were held at the Chapel at Graceland cemetery Rev. G. W. Shideler of Hinton, preached a very touching sermon. A large number of friends assembled to pay a last tribute of respect to the deceased. Her son, M. E. Bennett, did not arrive from Ethan, S. D., until his mother had passed away. The family has our sympathy in their great loss. The pallbearers were; Ed Bradstreet, John Jebson, George Armstrong, Mr. Stolt, J. Litterick, and D. Creamer. Mrs. Bert Hancock, her daughter, deserves much credit for the care she gave her mother during the last two months of her illness as she cared for her night and day.
