From obituary (unknown source):

Nettie Bulah Ward, daughter of W. W. and S. A. Ward, was born Nov. 26, 1879 near Bentonsport, Iowa, where she grew to womanhood. She was married to S. R. Henry April 26, 1899. To them was born a lovely little daughter Feb. 24th, 1900, which passed to the Better Land on Sunday morning, March 11th. Nettie possessed a kind and loving disposition which endeared her to all with whom she became acquainted, bearing her sickness with remarkable patience, never murmuring, following the example of her Savior and her long afflicted mother, who just four short weeks before was laid to rest. In the fall of 1898 she united with the Presbyterian church at Bonaparte, remaining a faithful member until she was called home March 14, 1900. She leaves to mourn her untimely departure a husband, an aged father, four sisters and two brothers, besides many friends and acquaintances.

"She's gone, her work on earth is done,
The battle fought, the victory won,
Blest was the path she trod,
For she espoused the Glorious Cause,
In prompt obedience to the laws
Of the Eternal God."

The funeral was held at the Presbyterian church, Bentonsport, Friday morning; services conducted by her pastor, Rev. W. H. Scofield.
