MARY EVA HOPKINS, third child of George and Rachel Catherine.
She completed two years at Wheaton College (IL). She went to Chicago in January, 1887, and engaged in Bible work with Miss Dyer, where she stayed until April, 1892, when she was called home by the serious illness of her mother. To her, she gave a daughter's most devoted care until her death, September, 1892. She then kept the old homestead bright and homelike for her father, always ready with a glad welcome for the children and grandchildren, until the spring of 1902, when a mortal malady shut her in with pain, for which no remedy was found. She died July 3, 1902, and is buried in the Granville cemetery. She left a legally adopted daughter, Madelene, born September 22, 1898.
