MRS. W. M. DILL SUCCUMBS TO PNEUMONIA.
In our issue of last week, it was stated that Mrs. W. M. Dill was seriously ill with pneumonia, with little hope of her recovery. We have now to record with sorrow that she departed this life, Saturday March 9th 1901. Mrs. Dill who was Agnes Wylie Reynolds, was born in New York City; the family soon afterward removed to Crawford county, Ohio, and from there to Winchester, Kansas, in the spring of 1869. She was a woman of more than ordinary education and intelligence. In her earlier life she taught successfully in the public schools of Ohio, and also of Kansas. There are those in our community who still cherish the highest respect for her memory, as formerly their teacher. She was married to W. M. Dill October 21st 1873. Seven children were given them, five of whom yet survive; two of these being Mrs. E. J. Cathcart and Mrs. T. R. McCrea. Soon after coming to Winchester she united with the R. P. church, of which she continued to be a constant, active and worthy member until her decease. For many years she was the treasurer of the Woman's Missionary Society of the congregation, a position that she filled with remarkable ability and efficiency. When informed that the end of her journey was near, she received the startling intelligence with admirable courage and composure. During the days and nights of heroic conflict with the fatal disease that followed, she exhibited only the rarest patience and christian fortitude and trust. To each member of her family she repeatedly gave the wisest counsel and advice. Her one great concern was for their moral and spiritual well being, that they would live for God and not for self or the world. The funeral services were conducted by the pastor at the R. P. church, Monday, March 11th at 1 p.m., in the presence of a large and sympathetic audience, and subject of discourse being the Resurrection as presented in 2nd Cor. 4:14.
We desire to bear our testimony that Mrs. Dill was a good and noble woman, whose removal an entire community will mourn as a loss. The sympathy felt for the bereaved family will be equally widespread and sincere.
