Belding Banner, 1 Mar 1900

Leonora Hart was born in Keene, July 27, 1877.  When but nine years of age she 
with her parents removed to Afton township, Sedgewick Co., Kansas.  Only eight 
short years after this, she with two brothers were left orphans and very soon 
came to Mich to be among friends.  Being of an energetic ambitious disposition 
she endeavored as long as strength permitted to maintain herself, working in 
the factory in Belding until about seven weeks ago when she was obliged to give 
up entirely.  After making a few visits she came to the home of her aunt, Mrs. 
Jas Henry, where she was cared for until the afternoon of Feb. 19 when she very 
quietly passed away in the arms of her attendant.  She has known and realized 
from the first that the end was nigh and has several times expressed her 
willingness to go, saying she was not afraid to die.  She was very patient 
during her sickness no murmurings passed her lips but was cheerful amid it 
all.  She leaves besides other friends the two brothers mentioned to mourn her 
loss.  May the dear Lord bless them and so direct their footsteps that at the 
last they may all be united in that land of eternal sunshine.  The funeral was 
held at her aunt’s residence, Wednesday at 10 o’clock.  The remains being 
buried in the Marble cemetery.
