CLEVELAND COUNTY HERALD - August 11, 1904
MRS. MARTHA V. CHOWNING (#2 OF 2)
Mrs. Martha V. Chowning, wife of Dr. T.W. Chowning, breathed her last on earth at the home of her daughter, Mrs. E.W. Emerson, on July 20th, 1904. She was born near Montgomery, Ala., Aug. 11, 1830. Came to Arkansas with her father, Mr. Nathaniel Barnett, in 1839; she was married to Dr. Chowning Oct. 15th, 1845, a few years later she and her husband both professed religion and joined the M.E. church and ever after she lived close to God. For thirteen years before her death she was a great sufferer, but bore it all with the patience and resignation that is known only to God's children.
Truly it is said of her "she was one of god's pure saints." Her bible was always in reach of her chair and she daily read and studied his word. It is hard to give her up. Our home is so lonely without her pure presence
and sweet words of counsel but she was ready and willing to go and join her husband and children gone before and we know that while our hearts are breaking here she is happy and at rest. Sleep on sweet mother "we loved thee well, but God loved thee best," and we bow in submission to His will, looking forward to the Great Day when we shall meet again never to part any more.
