She came to America in 1872, and for eighteen months made her home at Cedar
Falls, then moving to Osage where they established business and where she
resided till her decease.  Mrs. Levers has been a member of the Methodist
Episcopal church for many years, and when in the house of God, was an
attentive quiet worshiper.  She has been failing gradually for the past
two years . Four months ago she was taken down to her bed and has been
confined there until her release.  She was a great sufferer; and death
was indeed a release.

The funeral was held on Thursday, Dec. 26th at 10:00 a.m. from her late
residence, conducted by F. P. Shaffer, and burial was made in Osage
Cemetery.
