OBITUARY OF PHOEBE J. ANTRIM
 
Phoebe J. Stewart was born in the State of Indiana, July 21st, 1830 and died 
at her home in Payette, Feb. 22, 1922, therefore being 91 years, 7 months and 
one day old at the time of her death.  More than 70 years of her long and 
useful life was spent in the faithful service of her master, she was converted 
in early life and became a member of the Christian church which faith she 
followed more than the average life of man.
 
In the year 1849, at the age of 19, she was united in marriage to W. C. Antrim 
who passed to his reward more than 50 years ago.  To this union four sons were 
born, three of whom have also passed beyond.  In 1854 she moved with her 
family to Iowa and in 1867 to the State of Missouri where the following year 
her husband was killed by a run-away team.  In 1885 she moved with her son Z. 
F. Antrim to the state of Kansas and from there to western Nebraska where she 
made proof on a homestead claim in 1857.  In 1911 she moved with her son to 
Rigby, Idaho and in 1919 to Payette where she spent her last declining years 
in scripture -- quotations patiently waiting for the time to come, her 
suffering was without pain or suffering, she was in her usual health on 
Tuesday and passed peacefully on at 7:10 Wednesday morning, Feb. 22, 1922.
 
Besides her son, Z. F. Antrim, of Payette, with whom she has made her home the 
greater part of the time for more than fifty years.  She is survived by 21 
grand-children and 23 great-grand-children.  Funeral services were held from 
the home Thursday afternoon conducted by Rev. Shamburger of Fruitland.  
Interment took place in Riverside cemetery.
