Mrs. Margaret Wagner Lichty was born in Baden, Germany, Jan. 12th, 1814, and died at the home of her daughter, Mrs. Margaret Tummond, Aug 12th, 1904, being 90 years and seven months old.
She was reared in a christian home and confirmed in the German Reformed Church at the age of 14 years.
She came to America when a young woman and lived in Trastburg, Maryland, a number of years. She was married to Samuel Lichty, of Pennsylvania, in 1841. To them were born seven children, six daughters and one son, six of whom are still living, the youngest, Katie, having died a little more than two years ago. Mr. Lichty died thirteen years ago.
The family moved to Kirksville in 1869, where their home has since been.
Mrs. Lichty was a most excellent christian woman, loving her Bible, her church and her Savior. So long as strength permitted she was a regular attendant on the services of God's house, which were a great comfort to her. She was always pleased to have her pastor call and read and pray with her. Her death was tranquil and and [sic] without pain. She was spared the lingering sickness with which some suffer.
The funeral services were conducted by her pastor, Rev. W.C. Templeton, Sabbath morning at nine o'clock. The text was one she herself had chosen years before--Rev. 7:14. The body was tenderly laid to rest in Forest Park cemetery to await the morning of the resurrection.
The surviving relatives have the sympathy of many friehds [sic] in Kirksville and elsewhere.
