DIED.
Mrs. Ruth A. Baldwin died at the residence of her son, Charles Baldwin, near Plevna, Saturday, Feb. 8, 1896, of old age and a complication of diseases.
Grandma Baldwin, whose maiden name was Ruth Ann Tulley [sic], was born in Mason county, Kentucky in 1821; was married to C. H. Baldwin in 1840, and moved to Knox county, Missouri, the same year and settled upon the farm upon which she resided continuously until her death.
She was the mother of four children, two girls and two boys, the former both now dead; the latter, Samuel H. and Charles Baldwin, survive her, and are well-to-do and respected citizens of Bourbon township, this county.
Mrs. Baldwin united with the Christian church some fifty years ago, and remained an earnest and active member thereof to the last. She was ever ready to do her part toward advancing every worthy cause and to aid those needing assistance.
Sorrowing friends laid her to rest in the family cemetery on the old home farm, beside her husband and two daughters, who preceded her in death.
