Smith and daughter of Mr. and Mrs. J.B. COOKSEY, was born Sept. 8th, 1873, and died June 23rd, 1897. She was a member of the M.E. church at Emmons, Kas., and had strong faith in god as was shown by her when the writer first visited her some two months before her death. She had the victory over the evil angel then and held it with a steady grip to her dying hour at which time she showed still clearer evidence of her acceptance of God, for she smiled like that we are told plays upon angels faces and her tears would not have stained an angels cheek. Thus she passed over the river entreating as she went husband, mother, father, and all to meet her in glory. The funeral service was held in the Emmons school house where people showed by their acts they loved and respected her.. She leaves three little children and a husband to mourn over the loss of a wife and mother. J.H.
