Morris Herald, July 7, 1886
Stone, Amanda - Amanda Stone, relict of Charles Stone, died in this city on 
Wednesday morning, of heart disease. Deceased was born in Monroe county, New 
York, and had she lived would have been sixty-five years old next September. 
She had resided in Grundy county for twenty-six years. She was the mother of 
nine girls, five of whom are living, to wit: Mrs. F.B. White, of Kempton; Mrs. 
Levi Whipple, Mrs. George Hunt, Mrs. J. W. McKindley and Miss Kate, all of 
Morris. Her husband, Chas. Stone, died six years ago last fall in California, 
where he was sojourning for his health. Mrs. Stone had always been an 
energetic, hard-working woman, endowed with a strong constitution, but the 
cares of life finally made their impression, and disease of the heart became 
manifest. Some six or eight weeks ago she was taken down, but through the 
skill of her physician found relief from her malady for a few weeks, after 
which she was again taken down and for the past four weeks her life has 
hovered between the earth and the mysterious beyond until Wednesday morning 
when life took its flight, Mrs. Stone was for many years a member of the 
Methodist church. The funeral will take place from her late residence on Main 
street, at 1 o'clock Friday afternoon, conducted by Rev. W. A. Phillips.
