MARTIN:  Mrs. Emily S. Martin died at her home on west 6th last night at 1:00 
o’clock. Emily S. Saxton was born in Ohio, January 15, 1842. In 1861 she was 
married to Mr. Martin who was a soldier in the army. He died of consumption 
after they had been married two years. Mrs. Martin and Mrs. L. E. Saxton came 
to Kansas in 1887. Nearly all of the time since then they have lived in El 
Dorado. Nearly everybody here knows of these two sisters. They preferred to 
live apart from others and were perfectly devoted one to another. They were 
firm believers in Spiritualism and devoted much of their time to procuring a 
deeper insight into that belief. Besides Mrs. Saxton, the beloved sister who 
has been her constant companion for so many years, she leaves three other 
sisters in Nebraska and two brothers in Illinois. The funeral will be held 
Monday afternoon if the relatives can get here in time. The ceremony will be 
conducted by Judge Tucker, a Spiritualist, of Wichita at the home and she will 
be buried in the West Cemetery.
