MISS LILLIE B. LINN
Chatsworth Plaindealer, Chatsworth, Livingston, IL
SEPTEMBER 16, 1887
Miss Lillie B. Linn died at the home of her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Joseph H. Linn, in Charlotte township, Monday morning, Aug. 11, aged 20 years, 4 months and 10 days.
She had always enjoyed good health until very early last spring, when she was taken sick, and from that time slowly declined, having succumbed to that almost invariably fatal disease, consumption. During the long summer months she had lain, slowly but surely wearing away, anxiously watched by loving relatives and kind friends. Though a great sufferer during the long and excessively hot season, she was ever patient, never murmuring and highly appreciating every little act of kindness. The great suffering was ended by her peacefully sinking into that last, long sleep Monday morning, with her grief-stricken parents, brothers and sisters at her bedside. She had been a consistent member of the Methodist church in this city for over four years; was a kind friend to many, a loving sister and fond daughter, and her death in the spring time of womanhood brings sorrow to many hearts.
Her remains were brought to the Methodist church, in this city, at two o'clock Tuesday afternoon, where the funeral services were conducted by Rev. H.C. Birch, assisted by Rev. Wingert, of the German Evangelical church, after which all that was mortal of Lillie Linn was followed to the cemetery by a large number of relatives and friends and deposited in its final resting place in the Chatsworth cemetery.
The family have the sympathy of their many friends in this vicinity in their great bereavement and can console themselves with the thought that all that medical aid and willing hands could do was done for their loved one.
