Last Tuesday night at eleven o'clock occurred the death of Mrs. Chas. Potter, a few hours after giving birth to a son. Sarah Elizabeth Talbitzer was born March 18, 1872, in Allegheny City, Pennsylvania, where she lived with her parents until they moved to Niles, Ohio and in March, 1888, came with them to Platte county, living two miles and a half northeast of Monroe. On February 8, 1893, she was married to Charles E. Potter and since then they made their home on the Jewell farm. To this union were born four children, Ralph, Paul, Edna and an infant son. Besides her husband and children she leaves her mother and father, Mr. and Mrs. C. W. Talbitzer, of Monroe,four sisters, Mrs. S. J. Percy, of Valley, Mrs. Frank Croshaw, of Salem, Oregon, Mrs. Lester Kelley, of Fullerton, Nebraska, and Mrs. Ollie Ifland, or Monroe, and two brothers W. M Talbitzer of Omaha, and John Talbitzer, of Monroe. Mrs. Potter was 37 years and seven months old and had always lived a noble, Christian life. Her greatest happiness was found in her home and children, where she was the idol, but with the helpful hand and willing heart, always ready to relieve the sufferings of others. Out of the goodness of her heart whe was happy in doing some kind act for father, mother, sisters or brothers. As wife and mother she was faithful and watchful with a cheerful disposition rejoicing in the bright faces of her husband and children. But death has reared its harvest. The husband has lost the light of his home, children their loving mother, parents their dutiful daughter, brothers and sisters their friend and sympathizer. That she should be so early taken from her happy home seems so very sad, and we find ourselves asking why? With only the answer, God's ways are past finding out. We know she is in a fairer home where all earthly ties shall be reunited, and "we shall know even as we are known." Funeral services were help Thursday from the home and at the Presbyterian church at 2 p.m., Rev. Wedge conducting the services. Interment was made in the Friend's cemetery.
