Mrs. Jane Prisk died at midnight on Saturday, May 8, at the home of her son W.E. Prisk; aged 76 years, 7 months and 10 days. The decedent was born in the county of Devonshire, England on Sept 28, 1832. At the age of 22 years she came to Wisconsin and soon afterwards was united in marriage to Samuel Prisk. Of the eight children born to this union seven remain to cherish her memory and gathered to perform the last act of love to the mortal form of their new sainted mother.
The immediate family is composed of Mrs. Sarah Howard, Walter of Waukesha, Mrs. Cora Bennett of Willow Springs, Mrs. Kitty McCord of Cherokee, Iowa, Mrs. Laura Lindsley of Ridgeway, Mrs. Anna Howard of Darlington and William E. of the town of Mineral Point.
Early in life she became a communicant of the P.M. church and met with the class led by P. Allen Sr. She was a sincere Christian and a mother in the truest and fullest sense. As a neighbor she was esteemed for her sympathetic disposition and her advice was sought by those who needed counsel.
The funeral was held on Tuesday afternoon, conducted by Rev. W.J.C. Bond, assisted by Rev. W.T. Walker.
