Miss Jonas was a native of Bellevue, Iowa, and came to Clay County about two years ago, since which time she has suffered, almost constantly, from her fatal malady-consumption. For 18 long and weary months she bore her painful illness with patience and fortitude unsurpassed. If esteem and sympathy had been of any avail to stay the hand of death, this sad event had not been chronicled. “Whom the Gods love die young,” and she yielded up her young life to Him who gave it, without fear and without a struggle. She had gone to “rest,” who suffered so long and patiently.-Clay County Dispatch File at: http://files.usgwarchives.net/ia/jackson/obits/j/jonas591nob.txt This file has been created by a form at http://www.genrecords.net/iafiles/ File size: 1.4 Kb
