ANNA E. BRENT
Mrs. Anna E. Brent, who departed this life at her home near Brunswick, Mo., was born in Harrodsburg, KY., December 12, 1830. Daughter of Thomas and Mary Allin. She had nine brothers and three sisters. A brother and sister survive her. She married H. G. Brent October 17, 1849, and moved to Booneville, Mo., where he was a merchant. Just after the war they located on a farm near Brunswick, where she lived until her death, January 3, 1902, having been a widow nearly a year. Three children blessed her marriage union, Mrs. Mary Glasscock, who preceded her to the happy shore, Robert died at the age of eighteen months, and H. G. Brent survives her and has remained home nearly all his life caring for his parents in their declining years. Mrs. Brent had been a member of the Christian church many years, adorning herself with those christian virtues which enabled her in meeting the temptations and allurements of this world in all their varied forms, to look calmly forward and move on untarnished by corruption till the twilight of time was lost in the sunlight of heaven, when there was a higher note and a grander tone as she swept her golden harp and passed through the pearly portals into the presence of Omnipotence, there to taste of the sweets of the home of the soul, and find a perpetual resting place in the temple not made with hands, eternal in the spirit land, where the swelling chorus of countless millions, cemented by bonds of union, indissoluble and eternal to that God whose name is love, making heaven's arches ring with the anthem of immortality. Then dear bereaved ones, bend to His will, and question not the wisdom who hath sent the hoarfrost with its wasting blight to pluck the flower of your love. She had many devoted friends who will miss her sadly, and tenderly and solemnly weep in sympathy with you. Though we bow in submission to our Father's will, yet friendship must suffer from sorrow a thrill, when death severs hearts that love hath entwined. Her funeral was conducted by Rev. Franc Mitchell of the Presbyterian church. A large concourse of friends followed her remains to the Elliott Grove cemetery Sunday, January 5, 1902.
