Mabel Elizabeth Brittain was born in Madison county, Iowa, Dec. 7th, 1885 and departed this life July 4th, 1904, in answer to her master’s call, at the home of her parents nine miles northeast of Winterset. She was married to J. J. DeWitt Jan. 27th, 1903. Her age was 19 years 6 months and 27 days. Mable Brittain was one of Madison county’s brightest girls and was loved by all who knew her. Her life was thus cut short in its beginning. It was sad sight to witness the old and young, who had known and loved her, coming to see the closing of that early grave and pay the last respect to one who in life had been the favorite of all. She leaves a husband, mother, father, two brothers, three sisters and a host of friends to mourn her loss, and an infant child who if spared will be destined to go through life without the knowledge of a mother’s love. Thus a noble young girl has gone from us and the home is vacant of a loved one which never can be filled but heaven is richer. Her funeral was held at the North River U. B. church and all that was mortal of Mabel Brittain was laid in peaceful repose in the McDonald cemetery, there to await the resurrection morning.
