JOHN BROWN DIES AFTER A BRIEF ILLNESS OF A WEEK HAD LIVED HERE FOR MANY YEARS The Deceased Was a Native of Maryland, Where She Was Born Seventy-Five Years Ago--Leaves a Husband and Five Sons Mrs. John Brown died at her home three miles southwest of town on Wednesday morning, following a wee's illness. Mrs. Brown had been in good health until about a week before her death, when she was stricken with an attack of apoplexy. It was seen from the first that her condition was serious, and the best medical skill and nursing was fruitless to prolong life. Mrs. John Brown was born in Washington county, Maryland, on November 3, 1835, her maiden being Sarah A. Miller. When a young girl her parents moved to Lanark, Ill., where the family lived many years. She was united in marriage with John Brown on November 6, 1856, and after marriage lived on a farm near Lanark. In 1884 they came to Plymouth County and bought a farm southwest of town, now the Hilger farm. They subsequently bought the old Betsworth farm adjoining town, where they lived for some years. Later they purchased the place where the family now lives near the Shearon crossing. Mrs. Brown is survived by her husband and five sons, who mourn the loss of a devoted wife and mother. The sons are: George, who lives at home; Oviver C. Brown, of Hinton; Benjamin C. Brown, of Washington Township; John Frank Brow, of Rapid City, South Dakota, and Charles P. Brown, of Fonda, Iowa. She is also survived by three sisters and two brothers, who are Mrs. Mary Phillips, of Lanark, Ill., Jonathan Miller and Jacob Miller, of Lanark, Ill., and Mrs. Maggie K. Emmert, of Des Moines; Mrs. Kate Wilis, of Dixon, Ill. Mr. and Mrs. Brown have been married fifty-five years and have traveled life's journey together in sweet communion and happiness, and the death of his life long companion is a severe blow to the aged husband. Mrs. Brown was a good Christian woman, devoted to her husband and sons, a good neighbor and friend, charitable in speech and deed. She was a member of the Christian church, with which she united at Lanark, Ill., in 1872. The funeral will be held this afternoon at the home at one o'clock, Rev. W. E. Blackstock, pastor of the First Methodist Church officiating, and the interment will be made in the city cemetery. The pallbearers are John Bogen, Jos. Bogen, C. E. Haas, Albert Muxlow, Henry Liesenger and Geo. W. Bunt. Le Mars Semi-Weekly Sentinel Friday, August 4, 1911 Le Mars, Iowa
