Tabitha Banks Carpenter.
Tabitha Banks, the eldest child of Henry Prichett and Nancy Turpin Banks was born near Emerson, Mo., Feb. 15, 1840. She received her education in the public schools of Marion County and at Palmyra Seminary. In 1851 at at the age of eleven she united with the Emerson Christian Church of which she has ever since been a consistent member, On Nov. 4th, 1869 she was united in marriage to W. H. Carpenter of Clark County, Mo. After two year's residence in Clark County they moved to a farm near Emerson where they lived until age and declining health caused them to dispose of the farm and move to Emerson, where they have resided since.
Mrs. Carpenter entered into rest April 28, 1922. Puss, as she was: known to us, was loved and respected by all who knew her. She loved to pluck the flowers that grew by the wayside and arrange beautiful nosegays for her friends. She loved to pluck the flowers from the path of duty one loved to pluck the flowers from the path of duty and arrange them into bouquets to lure pilgrims to the narrow way that leads to life and light.
Besides the bereaved husband she leaves two sisters: Mrs. Elizabeth Marksbury and Mrs. Josephine Hutcherson; three brothers, Lynn, Napoleon and Lee Banks. These with a host relatives and friends look forward to a happy reunion beyond this life where we shall have to part no more.
