Mrs. Isaphene Elizabeth (Estle) Biddle.

Isaphene Elizabeth Estle, born in Hamilton county, Dec. 19, 1857, departed this life Nov. 5, 1912, at 2:20 a.m. at her home in Union township, at the age of 54 years, 10 months and 16 days, after an illness of four months, with tuberculosis.

She was united in marriage to John Biddle, Nov. 26, 1882. To this union was born three sons and three daughters, of whom four survive: Jesse J., Clarence P., Oliver P. and Opal E., and the husband to mourn their loss; also three brothers Wm. P. and Jas. A. Estle, of Indianapolis; Andrew J. of Big Springs, and one sister, Marcia Florence Wilson of Mount Clare, Neb.

No sister manifested a more fraternal devotion for her brothers and sister than she. Indeed, she was a lover of home, and there spent her life attending to her own duties and speaking kind words for her friends and neighbors. Her name was not recorded in any church register, but her life has presented to the world a character not blemished with atrocious faults, but saturated with unselfishness and amiability. A character in which truthfulness was a cornerstone in which the foundation of honest principles was firm all through life.

During her intense suffering she bore her pain with an extraordinary fortitude and patience – but when the melancholy days of autumn came, when the flowers were fading like our hopes, the leaves falling like our tears, the clouds fleeting like our illusions – when all these ground for death – this loved one combined to form a fitting back-passed beyond the reach of medical aid into the realm of immortality. There she inhales the healing breath of Paradise, with her father, mother, two brothers and two daughters. But sorrow and gladness are linked together. Joy and grief are never far apart, and while the dear ones are mourning their loss, she is in the land where everlasting sun sheds eternal brightness and where the soul drinks from the living stream of love, that rolls by God's high throne.
