The Osage County Chronicle Thur Apr 05, 1883 pg 1

   Mrs. David Griffith departed this life March 24,
leaving a large family, the youngest only one week
old. Her funeral sermon was preached by Mayor Loffty,
who aytaked [sic] the bulwarks of evolution, proving
that all animate life had once a beginning, and that
all organism tended to dissolution; urging all to
prepare for the solemn change that awaited them.
The funeral was one of the largest ever seen at this
place, as the Odd Fellows and Knights of Pythias
turned out in regalia.
