Lucinda Jump was born in St. Louis county Nov. 11, 1834; died Nov. 14, 1909, at her home near Clifford, Polk County, where she had lived for many years. She was married to Joseph Rutherford in 1853. To this union seven children were born, five having gone on to the glory world. Her husband died about 36 years ago. She has one sister living yet, Rhoda C. Breshears. Grandma professed faith in Christ in her early life and united with the Baptist church at Hopewell, Polk County. She afterward moved her membership to Lindley Creek church, where she lived a devoted Christian ‘till God said. "It is enough. Come up Higher." She had been a sufferer for several years, but bore it all with patience and only prayed that she might die easy. Several days before she died she called the family around her bed and bid them, good bye and told them to make ready to meet her in that better world. She leaves two daughters, one sister and twelve grandchildren to mourn her departure.
The funeral services were conducted by Reva Henry Bridges and M. T. Higginbotham, at Lindley Creek church, where a large crowd was present to pay their last respects to one they all loved.
"Why do you mourn departing friends or shake at death's alarm?
‘Tis but the voice that Jesus sends to call them to his arms.
