Brant died at her home southeast of this city at 6 a. m. last Monday, Nov. 12, 1906, of typhoid fever, after and illness of three weeks. Funeral took place at 1 p. m. yesterday at Fairview Christian Church, of which she was a member, conducted by Re. J. H. Wood, after which the body was brought to this city and buried in the I.O.O.F. cemetery. Mrs. Brant was daughter of the late Geo. W. Baker. She was born in Boone county, Ky., Dec. 5, 1837, and in 1852 came to this county with her parents. She was married to Mr. Brant in 1866. She leaves a husband, a son, 2 daughters, 5 brothers, 3 sisters, and a host of fiends. Her father died in 1884 and her mother in 1889. All her brothers and sisters were at her bedside before her death except Jim Baker and Mrs. Mat Bethards of Oklahoma. Mrs. Brant belonged to one of the pioneer as well as one of the best known families in Shelby county. She possessed many attractive virtues and was highly respected and loved by all. To the husband, children, and relatives we extend our sympathy. Shelby County Herald, November 14, 1906 Obituary Our dear aunt, Mrs. Sallie Brant, wife of D. A. Brant, died Nov. 12, 1906. Was born Dec. 5, 1887; married Feb 21, 1867; died of typhoid fever, after a long and painful illness of 23 days. All was done that medical skill, loving hands and kind neighbors could do, but in vain. God giveth and He taketh away. We in our poor understanding would have kept her, but He who too her gently from us knows best and can help us to say "Father thy will, not ours. It was a sad watch to those who stood around her bed, realizing as we did that no earthly help could be rendered the patients sufferer. She was conscious almost to the last and when her life went out a sweet smile played over her pale face as if to beckon her sorrowing ones to a better world. Though possessed of a frail constitution she was ever a ministering angel unto others. As I looked for the last time on her lifeless form and pale, sweet face, calm and peaceful in death, I pondered thus: "Who would live always away from his God, Away from yon heaven, that blissful abode, Where rivers of pleasure flow o'er the bright plains, And the noontide of glory eternally reigns?" Her heart and home were always open for every good work and word. She joined the Christian church and gave her heart to Christ some 43 or 44 years ago and upon his almighty arm she was leaning with perfect repose as she walked through the valley and the shadow of death. On the blackness of the soul's anguish rises the sun of righteousness with healing in his wings, gliding death's sable cloud and turning it to gold. Any words of mine would be only chaff, though well meant for grain, but listen, "Blessed are the dead who die in the Lord." The profusion of flowers at the funeral service was a fitting and fragrant expression of the esteem and love of a large circle of friends and loved ones. She was a true and devoted wife, a kind and affectionate mother and a loving sister. She leaves an aged husband and 3 devoted children- two daughters and one son, two sisters and six brothers and many other relatives to mourn her death. When the funeral day came there was a large delegation that assembled from different parts of the country to pay their farewell tribute to the memory of one held in such high esteem and respect, whose pleasant smile, cordial grasp and cheerful voice had all been hushed in death. Her remains were taken to the Fairview Christian church where a short funeral service was held, conducted by Re. J. H. Wood and from thence to the I. O. O. F. cemetery for burial. May we all so live that when the conflict of life is over we may meet our loved ones in that glorious and blessed land where there will be no more parting from those we love. Glenn.
