DEATH'S DOINGS
Mrs. Etta Elmore died at the home of her parents, Mr. and Mrs. J. T. O'Hair, Saturday from the effects of an operation, which was too long delayed. She was the relict of Will Elmore, who preceded her to the tomb four years. Only 26 years old, robust and handsome, she seemed destined to long life, but she was suddenly cut down, not, however, as those without hope for she had given her heart to God when 12 years of age and was prepared for the summons. After a funeral sermon Sunday afternoon by Elder Joe Severance, Jr., a large procession of friends followed the remains to Buffalo cemetery and gently laid them to rest.

A BRIGHT STAR GONE.
Mrs. Etta Elmore, poetess, novelist, christian, died at her home in Lincoln county. Words of love to her. From the twilight of illness to a dawn of recovery back to the night of death. On Saturday, June 2nd, at her residence in Lincoln county, Mrs. Etta Elmore, the accomplished poetess and journalist, departed this life. Although sympathetic friends and relatives had closely watched and were expecting the sad intelligence, her death fell as a heavy blow on all who knew or knew of her. She had been ill for a few days but was not thought to be dangerously so until a few hours before she died. She suffered intensely but bore it with that sweet patience and submission which was characteristic of her life. Mrs. Etta was born in 1868. She was the relict of Will Elmore, who preceded her to the tomb four years. Mrs. Etta was tender, kind and gentle in her manners. Although just entering upon the pathway of life's duties and activities she had secured for herself a large circle of tried and true friends, who admired her for her true moral and christian virtues. She was the daughter of a fond and devoted mother, who though stricken by this bitter page of early bereavement, has the happy consolation that she has the sympathy of a large circle of friends and the firm assurance that Etta rests in the home of the blessed. All who knew Mrs. Etta bear testimony that she was loving and lovable in all the walks of life, carrying with her that true but modest personality that never failed to awaken the admiration of all true lovers of the true and beautiful. She was a member of the Christian church and in all her relations to the church of Christ among men she was true until the light of her earthly life was smothered in death. She was transported from the nursery of Christ's chosen ones to be a partaker of the joys of the angel of light. While it is sad to part with her let it be a lesson to all that while the good are gathered home, all alike are liable to be called. Watch therefore for ye know not the day nor the hour the son of man cometh. She has gone to her reward, and while a large circle of friends shed tears and bear this page of a sad and dreary heart she wears her pain of victory and invites all to join her in that happy home in the land of the eternal.
