Corey Jane Hall, daughter of Mr. And Mrs. Wm. A. R. Davis, was born at Spirit Lake, Ia., Feb. 12, 1876, and passed away at her home northeast of Holly Springs, Sept. 24, 1943, aged 67 years, 7 months, and 12 days.
Her parents moved to the home place 4 miles north of Holly Springs when she was three weeks old.
She was married to Richard Allen Hall Feb. 5, 1902. About a year later they moved to the present farm home. To this union three children were born, Gwendolyn, Cedric and Albertine.
At the age of seven, Mrs. Hall gave her heart to the Saviour, and she remained a faithful follower of Christ. She was a member of the Methodist church. She was a charter member of Mary Todd Lincoln Tent No. 65, Daughter of Union Veterans.
She was taken suddenly ill Sept. 6, 1942, from which she never recovered.
Surviving are the widower; a son, Cedric of Hornick; two daughters, Gwendolyn of Hornick and Mrs. Albertine Christman of Smithland; two sisters, Mrs. John Prichard and Mrs. Tom Moulin of Hornick; a brother, John Davis of Hornick; and five grandchildren.
She was a devoted wife, a loving mother and a true friend. Her sentiment is expressed in the thought of this poem which she treasured:
Weep not that her toils are over
Weep not that her race is run
God grant that we may rest as calmly
When our work like hers is done.
Till then we yield with gladness,
Our darling with Him to keep
And rejoice in the sweet assurance
He giveth His loved ones sleep.
