Gone to Her Reward.
Death came quietly to the relief of Mrs. William G. Trent at the family home in this city shortly after one o'clock last Sunday afternoon. She was buried Monday in Hillside cemetery.
ELLENDER ROLLER was born in Benton county, Arkansas, in 1849, and spent her early childhood days. In early womanhood she moved to Salem Church, Missouri, where she lived until her marriage to William G. Trent, February 26, 1871.
After their marriage Mr. and Mrs. Trent moved to Washington County, Arkansas, where they resided for nine years. From there they moved to Westville, in the then Indian Territory, where they resided for about three years.
About ten years ago they moved to Colorado expecting to make that state their permanent home, but an incident that occurred the second day after leaving Westville served to change their purpose. One of their sons was walking along the road carrying a gun. In some manner "the weapon was discharged killing the boy instantly" From the shock of this accident Mrs. Trent never fully recovered, and although everything possible was done for her she gradually declined and for the past four years has been a helpless invalid.
The family remained in Colorado about two years and then, with a hope that a change might prove beneficial to Mrs. Trent, they came back, stopping for a time at Independence Kansas. In 1904 the family came to Centralia and have resided here ever since.
At the age of 18 Mrs. Trent professed religion and joined the Missionary Baptist church and remained true and steadfast in the faith to the end. She was the mother of eleven children, seven of whom-five boys and two girls-survive her.
The funeral occurred about noon Monday from the family home and was conducted by Reverend Cross who delivered a few timely and well-chosen marks to the sorrowing relatives and friends.
