ANOTHER AGED MOTHER GONE

Another loved one has left this world with it's sorrow, cares and woes
far behind and has gone to the Land of Rest beyond the skies, where all shall 
be peace and love to those who have obeyed the great King's command.
Aunt Katie Rogers, who has been living with her son Thomas, south of New
Ross about two miles, for a number of years, died Sunday about 12 o'clock at 
the mature age of 83. 

Rev. W.T. Brooks of Ladoga conducted the services at the house Monday
afternoon at one o'clock, after which her remains were laid to rest forever 
in the Inloe cemetery.

Aunt Katie came from Kentucky in her childhood and has lived here ever
since. She was a kind old lady and was loved and respected by all who knew 
her. She seemed not to care for her own welfare, but for that of others.
She leaves a son and daughter who greatly mourn their loss, three 
grandchildren who shall miss her tender care, and a host of friends who shall 
greatly miss the aged one who has been a mother to us all.

" A precious mother from us has gone;
A voice we loved is stilled;
Her chair is vacant in that home;
Which never can be filled.

God, in his wisdom, has recalled
The boon his love had given;
Though her lov'd body moulders here
Her soul is safe in Heaven
