Lincoln Republican Aug 22, 1901
Miss Agnes McMichael was called to heaven, on Sabbath evening from her earthly 
home (Aug 18), six miles northwest of Lincoln.  She was born in Crawford 
County, PA,  September 1869.  The family came to this county in 1886.  She 
entered a school in Topeka soon after and joined a Congregational Church there 
in 1889.  A severe attach of diptheria prostrated her and left a basis for a 
complication of diseases under which she suffered for years.  Later, she 
removed to Chicago, where she became a department manager for Marshall 
Fields.  After some years stay in Chicago another stroke of paralysis seized 
her.  She returned to her home, where, for nearly 2 1/2 years she was a 
patient sufferer under great afflictions.  Several physicians sought to aid 
her but the disease was so difficult for treatment that no healing was given.  
In her illness she displayed a beautiful spirit of cheer and resignation to 
God's will.  The old hyms of the church were her delight for expressing her 
heart's desire.  She was ready to go as she heard the Lord's call.

The funeral services were shared by Rev. H.C. Bradbury and Rev. George McNab.  
The Lord had need of her, and fitted her by pain for His holy service - G.M.N.
