Mother - Elizabeth Dorsey (1824-1891)
Spouse Alonzo Appleby (1853-1915)
WELL KNOWN FORMER CITIZEN PASSES AWAY
Julia Scott Dorsey, she was the happy bride of Alonzo S. Appleby. Three children were born to this union, one boy who went away to the skies 10 years ago two girls, Mrs. Orval Eden of Tulsa and Mrs. Ruth Tolleson of Stroud. Sister Appleby gave her heart to God early in life and became a member of the Methodist church. In her life there was much sunshine for her self as well as for others; a few clouds, happy songs and a few dirges.
As she neared the happy shore she said: "I have not only seen His star in the east but I shall soon see Him face to face" and we are sure she has found 'Him the fairest among thousands and altogether lovely.
Sister Appleby saw her husband laid to rest in the ground two and a half years ago. A few weeks ago she started on an itinerary visiting her people: M. W. Dorsey, Wichita, Kansas, D. E. Dorsey, Weir, Kansas. Mrs. Jennie Taylor, Wichita, Kansas. Mrs. Lou Cole, Hutchinson, Kansas. Mrs. J. W. Ernst, Lyons, Kansas, and was visiting Dr. Appleby's home in Billings, Montana when she was suddenly called to the City of God on the ninth day of September, 1917.
Her body was brought to Bristow for burial and taken to the home of Mr. and Mrs. Longfellow where a short service was held conducted by Brother Vick, after which the Eastern Star of Bristow took charge of the body and at the grave performed the last service according to their beautiful ritual and her body rests besides that of Alonzo S. Appleby, her husband waiting the coming of the Lord in that Day.
