TYLER.--At La Cygne, Linn county, Kan., January 7, 1800, Mrs. Rebecca J., beloved wife of W.J. Tyler, aged 36 years, 6 months and 10 days. Mrs. Tyler was born in Highland county, Ohio, and removed with her parents, Mr. and Mrs. A.D. LIGGETT, to Wabash county, Ind., in 1854, where she resided until the fall of 1877, whe she came with her family to Linn county, Kan. She united with the Methodist Episcopal church in her fourteenth years and remained an esteemed member, enjoying its communion until her removal to Kansas. The relations of life, as wife, mother, daughter, friend, she maintained with the strictest fidelity. Her sterling worth and many virtues shone with the brightest lustre in the home circle. The short and painful illness was borne with sweetest submission to the Divine will; only a wish would pass her lips "to be up yonder," "to be in glory," as with a trembling hand she pointed upward. In speaking of her readiness to depart, she said, "I may not recover, if I do not, I have a clean soul," and to this may be added the testimony of a true consistent Christian life. ==== KS-FOOTSTEPS Mailing List ==== File at: http://files.usgwarchives.net/ks/linn/obits/t/tyler1306ob.txt This file has been created by a form at http://www.poppet.org/ksfiles/ File size: 1.8 Kb
