OBITUARY
 
Hattie C. Butler, daughter of George and Diana Butler, was born in Wisconsin, 
April 7, 1856.   When a young girl she moved to Kansas with her parents and 
later to Iowa, where she was united in marriage December 3, 1874 to Thomas B. 
Frakes.  To this union five children were born, two having died in infancy.  
The living children who survive her are Mrs. Estelle Fritchman, Naches, Wash.; 
Mrs. Mary F. Tharp of this city and Wylie Frakes of Ontario, Ore.  She also 
leaves a niece, Mrs. Margaret Miller, whom she raised from infancy and with 
who she made her home at the time of her death.
 
Mrs. Hattie Frakes was a true pioneer, having crossed the plains overland, 
with her, husband and little family, locating in Payette in 1882.  Her husband 
preceding her in death by twenty-five years, having died December 26, 1904 at 
Ontario, Ore.
 
Of a retiring, home loving nature, only a few, besides her family were 
privileged to know the depth and beauty of her charater.  She united with the 
Methodist church when a young woman and her life was filled with beautiful 
sacrifices for those she loved.  Besides those mentioned above there are ten 
grandchildren who mourn her demise, one great grandchild and one sister, Mrs. 
C. D. Roe of Oakland, Calif., besides a number of nieces and nephews.
 
"The soft memory of her virtues,
Huger like twilight hues, when
the set is set --
Then weep not, that her toils are over,
Weep not, that her race is run,
God grant that we may rest as calmly --
When our work, like hers, is done."
