PIONEER WOMAN PASSES AWAY
C W Moss received word Saturday of the death of his mother, Mrs Sarah Solomon, who passed away at the home of his brother: Phillip in Iola, Kansas on that date, Feb 12,1916.
The deceased is remembered here by many of the older residents among whom she lived for 19 years.
The parents of Sarah Ausmus, Mr and Mrs Phillip Ausmus, emigrated from Pennsylvania to Illinois in 1820 and located in what is now Morgan County, then it was a wilderness, inhabited mostly by Indians, here two years later little Sarah was born and here through the vicissitudes of pioneer life she grew to womanhood.
She was married to Isaac Moss at Jacksonville, Illinois Dec 2,1841. To this union were born three sons, Charles W of Atkinson, Phillip of Iola, Kansas and Isaac of Spokane, Wash.
Her husband preceded her in death Sept 1,1847.
She was married to Rev James Solomon of Carlinville, Ill, Oct 17,1853.
Rev James Solomon died Aug 30,1881 at the age of 71 years, having spent 50 years of his life a minister of the Baptist church, during the pioneer days of Illinois.
Being again widowed, Mrs Solomon came to the far west, there to experience a renewal of pioneer days, making her home with her oldest son, Charles W of Atkinson. To this place she came in March 1887 and spent 7 years on a Nebraska homestead. Here she lived until 1906 when she went to make her home with her son Phillip at Iola, Kan and with whom she continued to reside until her death at the ripe old age of 93 years, 3 months and 7 days.
Mother Solomon embraced the christian faith in her 17th year uniting with the Baptist church in Morgan County, Illinois and was baptized by immersion in the Illinois River.
This ends the long life of one who was ever ready with a helping hand and a willing heart, throughout, in ministing comfort to the sick and the distressed, ever abiding in that faith God gave to those who love and trust Him.
The funeral services were held at the home in Iola,Kan, Sunday, Feb 13,1916 and interment in the Iola Cem.
