Montague
Many months of weary waiting, suffering and pain came to and end on Thursday 
last, when Mrs. Margaret Montague breathed her last in the presence of her 
nearest relatives.  Death came at 11 o’clock in the morning, and must have 
been a grateful relief to the patient sufferer, who had lived for so many 
weeks without even a hope of life, and facing the grim destroyer without a 
tremor, seeking and finding strength and assurance in Christian faith and the 
knowledge of a life pure and nobly lived.  The deceased was born May 16, 1824, 
in Green county, Kentucky.  At the age of nineteen she was united in marriage 
to george W. Montague, of Greensburg, Ky., where the young couple lived until 
1864, when they moved to Illinois and settled in Logan County.  Thirteen 
children came to bless the union, only-four of whom are now living, viz: 
Daniel B., circulator and collector for the Daily News, Mr.s Arabella Lewis, 
of this city, Mrs. Lose Hull, of Nebraska, and McLelland, a carpenter, living 
in this city.  A few years ago Mrs. Montague was left a widow by the death of 
her husband [document ends]
