Mrs. Eunice Stover died at the residence of her son-in-law, N. F. Troxel, Thursday morning at half-past nine. She was taken with dropsy in June 1896 and had suffered intensely all these weary months. The funeral was held at the M. E. church Friday at 2 o'clock p.m., Rev. Murray officiating. The remains were laid to rest in Marshall cemetery.
Mrs. Stover's maiden name was Safford. She was a native of Vermont and came to Illinois with her parents when a girl.
Oct 28, 1860, she became the wife of Benjamin Stover, to whom she was ever a faithful, conscientious helpmeet. To them nine children were born, only three of whom, Daniel, Charles and Mrs. Anna Troxel, now survive.
When quite young she united with the Methodist church and remained faithful to the convictions of her youth all through her life. She was sixty eight years, seven months and six days old. In the days of her health and activity, she was a kind neighbor and true friend, and her memory will be cherished by many who have shared her hospitality and kind care.
