Wednesday night, March 9, 1892, the spirit of Belle A. Evans took its flight to that mysterious realm, where loved ones are "watching and waiting." She was born in Iowa, March 28, 1867, and at the time of her death was 25 years, 11 months, and 19 days of age.
She was an adopted daughter of Mr. and Mrs. W. Evans, east of town; her mother, Mrs. A. Grover, died in Sandwich when Belle was but four years of age. Her short life was a living example for good; she was one much beloved by all who knew her. She has now joined the mother and sister who passed on before, to rejoice in the fullness of eternal life. The foster parents and friends have the sympathy of many friends in their affliction.
The funeral services were held Saturday, at 11 o'clock, a.m., at the Methodist Church, Rev A. E. Sanders conducting the services. She was laid to rest beside her sister, in the Newark and Millington Cemetery.
NOTE: I do not know if the adoption by the Evans went thru the court system so her parents last name - Gruver - is entered as her maiden name.
