Amanda Lourine Finch was born near Lancaster, Fairfleld county, Ohio, Oct. 10, 1830, and died at the home of her daughter Mrs. Arthur Lamott, near East Germantown, May 27, 1918, aged 78 years, 7 months and 17 days. She was the oldest of five children born unto Hiram and Ellen Finch, all of whom preceded her in death except one daughter, Mrs. John Kaffits of Canal Winchester, Ohio All the early years of her life were spent in Falrfield county, Ohio, and it was here that she was married to Ellis E. McCray, who passed to the life beyond about five- years ago. In 1888 they with their family removed to White county, Ind., and later to East Germantown, which has been her residence for more than 30 years. She is survived by one son, three daughters, twelve grandchildren and several great-grandchildren. Her children are Earl McCray and Mrs. Arthur Lamott of East Germantown, Mrs. Clarance Vrrnauf of Hagerstown, and Mrs. John Ford of Pickerington, Ohio. Her chief Interests were in her home and her family, and her devotion to her children was almost unbounded. No sacrifice was ever too great for her to make if it would add to their happiness or comfort. Her love for her little grandchildren was remarkable and during her sickness she never failed to notice them nor to speak a loving word to them w h e n they came near her bed. During her illness she told her children and others that she was soon going home and asked them to meet her in heaven. She lived a quiet ebriatlan life and was a member of the United Brethren church in her early life, and later the Evangelical church at East Germantown. On the evening of May 27 just as the sun was sinking in the west, the sun of her earthly life went down and she peacefully fell asleep in Jesus, whom she had loved and served so many years. "Sunset and evening star, And one clear call for me; But let there be no moaning- of the bar When I put out to sea." "For. though from out our bourne of time and place, The flood may bear me far; I hope to meet my Pilot face to face, When I have crossed the bar." Funeral services were held by her pastor Rev. Brewer at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Lamott, Wednesday afternoon. Burlal was in the Lutheran cemetery. "
