THE DEATH OF MARY A. JOHNSON
"From Love's shining circle the gems drop away", day by day and hour by hour. As it has been, so it will be, while time lasts. Grief breaks upon our house hold, then takes her departure, like ripples into the sea. Each heart has its own cup of sorrow constantly running over and, then refilling, yet, there are times the dark messenger casts shadows so broad that the gloom penetrates to almost every household. Such an occasion, the present. Again has a great affliction fallen upon the family of Joseph Johnson, in the death of a dutiful wife and mother - in the demise of one universally respected for her many graces of character. It is but natural that the sympathies of our whole people should be moved; if not by a personal loss of every household, at least by a profound appreciation of the personal loss. And in this hour of bereavement, though not unlooked for, has brought the condolence of the entire community. At 12 o'clock Thursday night death came and forwarded in peace to realms above that gentle soul, the earthly tenement of which has long been made to suffer, and, oh, how patiently her suffering has been borne. The deceased, Mary A. Roudebush, was born in Tippecanoe county, Lauramie township, lived there until her 19th year. She was married to Joseph Johnson December 8, 1853, and lived a consistent church member until her death.
