Mary E. Craig was born August 22, 1884, in Fremont County, Iowa, and was a daughter of Mr. and Mrs. William Craig, residing six miles northeast of Union. She was the wife of Joseph Hill, and her death occurred at 1o'clock a.m., Friday March 7, 1902, at her parents' home.
The circumstances attending her illness and death are particularly sad. On February 8, death called her little daughter Della, aged three weeks, and the mother, who was then failing health, grew weaker until death came to her relief and called her to join the little one that had preceded her to the home prepared for the righteous. Funeral services were held in the Sciota schoolhouse at 11 o'clock a.m. on Saturday, conducted by Rev. H. F. Smith of Union, after which the remains were laid to rest in the Sciota cemetery.
Deceased had lived in this vicinity for about eleven years, and was a lady who had the love and esteem of all, possessing many qualities to draw about her the true friendship of her companions. The relatives have the sincere sympathy of the entire community on account of the unbearable loss they have suffered.
