MARGARET JANE SHERWOOD

Mrs. Margaret Jane Sherwood passed away Tuesday, October 8th after being 
confined to her bed for many weeks. She had been in feeble health for several 
years gradually growing weaker and her passing to the great beyond was truly a 
symbol of declining years. She had finished her work on earth and was ready 
and willing to go. She had been entirely blind for the last fifteen years but 
with her great affiliation was patient to the end.

Margaret Jane Post was born near Postville, Iowa, June 22nd, 1838, and died at 
Payette, Idaho, October 28th, 1919, being at the time of her death over 81 
years of age. In 1868 while living in Dodge County, Minn., was united in 
marriage to Ambrose Sherwood. To this union five children were born of whom 
all have preceded her in death except W. F. Sherwood of Payette.

Since 1894 she has made her home in Idaho. She became a member of the 
Christian Church, when but a child to which faith she has lived truly and 
devoted to the end. Funeral services were held at 2:30 o'clock Wednesday 
afternoon at Lauer's Undertaking Parlors, conducted by Rev. Adams, pastor of 
the Christian Church, and that evening the body was shipped to Kendrick, 
Idaho, accompanied by W. F. Sherwood, for burial beside two children who were 
buried there.
