The Border Sentinel Linn County Friday May 9, 1873
Died.--At the residence of her parents, near Rockville, Miami County, Ks., on
Wednesday, April 30th, 1873, of erysipelas, Mrs. Annie TILTON, wife of W. Scott
Tilton, (formerly editor of this paper), aged 21 years, 5 months and 18 days.
Mrs. Tilton was a lady in every respect; a good wife, a kind mother, and one who
won the good will of all. By her death we have lost on this earth, one of our
kindest and best friends. We sympathize with her sorrow stricken husband in his
deep affliction. It is only he, who has had the misfortune to lose one so near
and dear, that can tell of the pangs and bitterness of this world, and when we
glance at the matter, with a calm and resolute thought, how sad it seems to be
left alone, only with the little cherubs, taken as from the mother's breast, to
console him, and they placed upon the world without knowing whether they will be
carefully looked after or not. Yes, it is sad.
