Obituary
A permanent landmark removed. A faithful servant called up higher. A true friend and neighbor entered into his reward. Not gone into the unknown, but that glorious home so beautifully described by mankind's great redeemer when he said, "In my father's home are many mansions. I go to prepare a place for you." The subject of this sketch, Water T. Elliott, our unwavering faith enables us to say with confidence that when the spirit which had so long animated his mortal body took its flight, it was not alone, but He who promised to be with us always, even to the end of the world, went with him and down into dark valley and conducted him safely to the mansion prepared for him, and there basking in the sunshine of eternal deliverance awaits the coming of the loved ones left behind.
Walter T. Elliott was born July 4th, 1839 in Nashville, Tenn. At the age of three years his parents moved to Otterville, Mo., where he grew to manhood, was educated and married Dec. 16th, 1858 to Emma A. Lamb. To this union were born four children, Mrs. Lorraine Bridges and Miss Abbie Elliott of Windsor, Mo., Mrs. E. F. Van Wagner and Mrs. G. E. Wilson of Sedalia. He died Feb. 27th, 1910 at 3:20 p.m. He joined the Baptist Church in 1872, and for thirty-eight years has led a true and consistent Christian life. No greater enconium (sic) than "Christian" can be given to man. It shows his relation to God and to his fellow creatures - the children of God - and presents a clear title to missions of bliss. The four daughters, the disconsolate widow and dear little Josephine, the faithful granddaughter, are left to mourn their loss. I can not say to you dear friends to grieve not for I don't want you to forget the loved one gone before, but I can say in the language of the blessed Master, sorrow not as those who have no hope, for a halo of hope shown around and about his couch as the labored breathing bore him away to the silent shade and we can endorse the consolation of Paul that we are not left in doubt. "We know that if this house of our tabernacle be dissolved, we have a building of God, a house not made with hands eternal in the heavens."
All that mortal hands could render and loving hearts devise was done to alleviate his suffering, every wish anticipated, everything money or friends could supply was given cheerfully for his relief. The bereaved family and faithful friends and relatives who stood by him in these long days of suffering have our unfeigned sympathy and of all who knew them.
On Tuesday, March 1st, Bro. Mcdonnell preached a sermon of tender sympathy and loving consolation at the Baptist church after a tender prayer by Bro. Challenner, the remains were borne by kind friends to Laurel Oak cemetery and laid away to await the coming of the Lord. His body asleep in Jesus, his spirit gone to God who gave it. "When the Holy City shall come down from God out of heaven we shall be changed and rise to meet him in the city and be forever with the Lord." Look to the reunion on the other side.
