Loving Daughter Of Henry Harrison & Amanda Staples Stallsworth. Wife Of Oxley Johnson II.

Mrs. Oxley Johnson Dead.

Martha A. Stallsworth Johnson, wife of Oxley Johnson of this city, departed this life Monday, February 7, 1910. and was buried Tuesday at 2 p.m., Rev. J. Kansas Morgan, a long-time friend of the family, conducting funeral services at the residence on east Indiana Street.

Mrs. Johnson would have been 70 years of age next April. She had been ailing for over two years and for the last few months it was evident that her days were few. All her children, five daughters and two sons, were present during her last hours. She has eighteen grandchildren and two great-grandchildren living. Her death was a triumph of faith, her last days being a glad anticipation of a glorious future. She professed conversion at the age of 17 years and united with the Disciples church. Mrs. Johnson was a native of Barren County, Kentucky. In that county she was reared and there February 28, 1858, she was married to Oxley Johnson. In 1860 they moved to Harrison county, Mo. In 1883 they purchased a farm near Brooks, upon which they lived until eight years ago when they purchased the house in Neodesha where she died and in which they have since lived.
