Obituary.
Again the death angel has entered the home of I. N. Brown of this city and taken from it another loved one, a wife and mother, who goes to join the only son and brother, who answered the call of the Master about three months ago.
Kejiah [sic] Smith Brown was born in Indiana, Feb. 24, 1850. When five years of age, she moved with her parents to Knox county, Mo. In 1868 she was married to Isaac N. Brown. To this union seven children were born, two of whom survive the mother, Mrs. J. W. Rose of Denver and Verna, of this city. About eighteen months ago they left the old homestead in Missouri and moved to Dodge City.
The deceased has been in declining health for two years, but bore her suffering with Christian grace and patience, always having a smile and cheerful word for everyone. Her vitality slowly left her and on Jan. 19, at 2:30 p. m., her spirit took its flight. Her eyes closed to all sorrow and suffering here and she went to be with her children who had gone before. Loving hearts and hands ministered to her during her long illness but were powerless to keep her with them when the grim messenger came. Rev. McCormick of the M. E. church conducted the funeral from the home on Tuesday afternoon, reading from 1 Cor. 15. His words of loving assurance brought solace to the sorrowing hearts. The choir from the Christian church furnished very appropriate and effective music. Beautiful floral pieces of rare flowers covered the casket. Although her home in our midst was short, yet she endeared herself to all by her kind and noble Christian spirit. Her life was and [sic] inspiration to everyone. Always thoughtful for the comforts of those around her. Her words were full of tenderness and love, and as her sorrowing friends gathered around her in her last moments we could not but feel that we, with her own dear ones, were giving up one for whom we could say: Our lives are better for having known her. The deceased also leaves a sister and two brothers to mourn her loss. Mrs. S. Skinner of Trenton, Neb., I. M. Smith, McCook, Neb., and VV. H. Smith of Indianola, Neb.
