OBITUARY.
Died, at her home in Thomas county, Kansas, Aug. 11, 1886, Lucy Ann Wisdom, wife of F. M. Wisdom, in the 47th year of her age, leaving an affectionate husband and six children to mourn her untimely death, and among them an infant babe, six children having preceded her in death. Lucy Ann Blakesly was born March 12, 1849, in Appanoose county, Iowa, and was united in marriage to F. M. Wisdom July 25, 1886. They lived in Iowa 11 years, and since then have lived in Decatur county, Kansas, until the first of June, 1886, she coming with her husband to Colby, Thomas county, Kansas, and departed this life Aug. 11th, 1886. She made many warm friends wherever she lived, and those who knew her best were her warnest friends. Hence in her removal there has been left a vacuum in the bosom of her family and circle of her acquaintances, which can never be filled, and which has filled their hearts with sorrow, and caused tears of affection to flow; but these tears are like the drops of rain at meridian of day that are illuminated by the sunshine of hope, that the loss the bereaved ones sustained was her eternal gain. Her mind was clear up to the time of her dissolution. She looked at death with calmness. She had nothing to fear. God was with her. Angels waited to conduct her to the regions of immortality, where she was welcomed into the courts of heaven with the voice of redeemed spirits. Her ramains were laid to rest in the family burying ground at Clayton, Decatur county, Kansas. Funeral discourse from 15th chapter, 8th verse, first Cory. Hymn No. 1070, in United Brethren, by E. S. Pease. Surely a good woman has gone to her reward. Mr. Wisdom has the heartfelt sympathy of the friends and neighbors in his sad hour of bereavement. A. V.
