MRS. JOHN M. TAYLOR
Mrs. Ruth Emma Taylor, wife of John M. Taylor, a former register of deeds and farmer in Nemaha county, passed away Friday evening July 13, at the home of her daughter, Mrs. Reason Meek, 620 Lafayette Ave., Kansas City, Kansas. Mrs. Taylor lived in Topeka until three months ago when her failing health required her daughters care. Mr. Taylor meanwhile has spent much of his time with his aged sister, Miss Ellen Taylor, Seneca, who needed his attention. Besides her husband, Mrs. Taylor is survived by three sons, J. E. Taylor, Corning; E. A. Taylor and John G. Taylor both of Kansas City, Kansas; two daughters, Mrs. A. W. Hanson, Shoshone, Idaho and Mrs. Meek; a brother, J. T. Amos, Seneca and two sisters, Mrs. John Grey, Derby, Kansas and Mrs. Ella Page, Humboldt, Kansas. She also leaves eight grandchildren and one great grandchild.

Ruth Emma Amos was born at Delta, York county, Pennsylvania, September 1, 1850 and passed away at the age of 73 years, 10 months and 13 days. She came with her uncle to Dawson, Neb., in March 1870 and was married to John M. Taylor on March 31, 1880 in Pawnee City, Neb. They lived in Nemaha county until 1920 when they moved to Topeka. About 20 years ago she united with the M. E. church and always was a very devout Christian. Truly it can be said that her home and her church were her shrine. She was always thinking of others, always welcoming those who came to her home. The noble character with which she was so abundantly endowed, was a joy to those whose lives she touched and was ever present even in her last sickness. It can truly be said of her that "none knew thee but to love thee, nor name thee but to praise."

Funeral services for Mrs. Taylor were held from the George H. Long mortuary in Kansas City, Kansas Monday afternoon at 2:30. Interment was made in Highland Park mausoleum.
