OBITUARY.
Mrs. Virlinda (McDaniels) Collins was born in Kentucky July 11, 1832, and died in Kansas, at the home of her daughter, Mrs. J. L. Forsyth June 5, 1908, aged, almost seventy six years. When a child she removed with her parents to Agency Ford, Buchanan county, Missouri, where she spent about thirty years of her life, her father being one of the early settlers there where he owned a large estate including about thirty slaves. In 1850 she married Miles Collins. To this union eleven children were born seven of whom are still living one son and six daughters.
In a very early day she came with her husband out to Brown county, Kansas, but after a short time went back to Missouri In the early 80's they came back to Kansas, locating on Rock Creek. In 1894 they moved to New Kirk, Oklahoma, where her husband died in February 1900. A couple of weeks ago she came to her daughter, Mrs. J. L. Forsyth, to make a visit. She was very feeble and her visit quickly terminated in the closing of her earthly journey. On Saturday, after a service held in the United Presbyterian church conducted by the pastor, Rev. W. E. Dunlap, her body was laid away in the R. P. cemetery.
When young she connected with the United Presbyterian church, and retained her membership in that church during her long life.
