The Belding Banner, Thursday, February 26, 1903
Marsha Eunice McNitt was born in the town of Byrnes, Alleghany Co., N.Y., July 
25th, 1855, and passed peacefully away at ten minutes past 4 o’clock February 
18th, 1903.  When about 11 years of age she came to Michigan with her parents, 
and at 14 came to her late home to work for the mother of Frank Luscombe, whom 
she married November 12, 1870.

Death came suddenly, many of her nearest relatives not knowing of her 
sickness.  To all appearances she was in her usual health until Friday, and 
from then until the last, she suffered almost constant pain.  Still her 
condition was not considered dangerous until about ten o’clock Tuesday night 
when it became apparent that the end was near.  She was conscious at all times 
and spoke touchingly to her husband and children staying she was most there 
and she would be happy then.  She tried to sing “Nearer, My God, to Thee,” and 
wished it sung at her funeral, and asked Dr. I. S. Morris to preach the sermon 
which, he did from the 10th verse of 23rd chapter of Numbers.  Of her it can 
truly be said in the fullest sense, “None knew her, but to love her, None 
named her, but to praise.  She leaves a husband, five children, a father, six 
sisters and four brothers.

Subsequent Publication:

Chas. Luscombe and sister Mrs. M. Ferris of Sumner returned home Monday after 
a few days visit in this vicinity, they were called here by the death of their 
sister-in-law, Mrs. Frank Luscombe.
