Interesting Resume of the Life of Mrs. Lethia Warner

Who Passed into the Great Beyond July 27th, 1905

Mrs. Lethea Warner died in Elwood, Ind., at the home of her daughter, Mrs. S. B. Harting, 1521 North A Street, on July 27, 1905.

Mrs. Warner was born in Grayson County, Virginia, on Feb. 21, 1826, and was therefore on the day of her death 79 years, 5 months and 6 days old.

She was one of the old settlers of the northwestern part of Madison County, having resided in the vicinity of Elwood for almost seventy years.

Her parents emigrated from Virginia in the year 1830, and located near what is now the city of Richmond, where they resided about six years, when they removed to Madison County and located in the then vast wilderness a few miles north of what is now called the city of Elwood.

When she was about 20 years old she was married to a prosperous young farmer names Alfred L. Anderson. To this union two children were born, they being Archibald C. and Agnes Anderson. A few years later the husband of her youth passed into the great beyond, leaving a sorrowing widow and two bright and beautiful children. The remains now lie in the Pleasant Hill Cemetery, seven miles south of this city.

Few years later she was wedded to J. W. Warner, a man whose sterling worth is reflected in the children he left to mourn his loss, when he departed this life some fifteen years ago, and was laid to rest in the city cemetery of Elwood. To this union were born two children, both of who are still living, being Ora Warner, who resides on the old home place north of the city and Mrs. S. B. Harting, of this city.

She leaves behind her three brothers and two sisters, they being Wm. Moore, Thomas Moore, Mrs. Julia Wright and Mrs. Jane DeHority, of this city, Joseph Moore, of Tipton, and Madison Moore, of Anderson.

Owing to the wide circle of friends of the deceased the remains will lie in state at the Harting home from 9 to 12 o'clock Saturday morning and the funeral will take place at the M. E. Church at 2 o'clock Saturday afternoon. The body will be carried from the Harting residence to church by the pall bearers, who will be selected from the old friends of the dead woman and the hearse and carriages will form at the church. Rev. E. E. Neal will deliver the eulogy over the dead, after which the cortege will wends its way to the cemetery where all that is mortal of this good woman will be laid to rest in the family lot beside that of her husband. Many friends will be in attendance from all over Madison county and a large number from Tipton county, who knew Mrs. Warner in life.
