SCOTT, Mary Jane STANTON 1859 - 1928

Life Work Of Mrs. N. E. Scott Over - It was on Saturday night near the time of 
Sunset, at 6:20 p.m., April 28, 1928, that the life work of Mrs. N. E. Scott was 
ended at her home on Rogers Avenue. August 31, 1927 she was first stricken with 
a cerebral hemorrage. Then it was thought perhaps she would not live, but she got 
better and went home with her daughter, Mrs. Mont Bornard, to Salem, Mo., where 
she got much better under the tender care, but she was not satisfied to be away 
from her afflicted husband or her aged mother, so returned in three weeks. In 
February this year she was again stricken and got better, but the fatal illness 
came just about a week previous to her death. She was concious until Thursday 
and knew her children and granddaughter, when they arrived. Mary Jane Stanton 
was born June 4, 1859, at Smith Bend, what was then Benton county, but what is 
now St. Clair. There she grew up learning the virtues of womanhood from one of 
the best women in the world, her mother, Mrs. James Stanton. She learned how to 
be a real neighbor; being good and kind were more important than the eternal rush 
for wealth. The result of this training every life was made better with whom she 
came in contact. She was united in marriage with N. E. Scott February 14, 1877, 
at the family home near Leesville, by the late Rev. Thos. Briggs. They lived near 
Shawnee Mound, then came to Clinton, which has been her home for near 40 years. 
Mr. Scott was employed at the White Swan Mill for many years. To comfort and 
care for the bereaved husband are the following children - James W. Scott, 
Phillipine Islands; Milo B. and John Scott, Lawton, Okla.; Mrs. Mont Bernard, 
Salem. There are nine grandchildren. One, Wyota Lee, the eldest daughter of Milo 
Scott, was raised by Mrs. Scott, as she was a very frail child and her parents 
being in business were unable to give her the proper care. All the grandchildren 
would rather come to her home than any place else in the world. She also leaves 
her mother, Mrs. James Stanton, who is 88 years old and who has lived with Mrs. 
Scott a number of years, and the following brothers and sisters - John Stanton, 
Goodland, Kas.; Alec Stanton, Benkelman, Neb.; Mrs. John Smith, Smith Bend; Mrs. 
E. Wallen, Eldorado Springs, Mo. She was converted at the age of 19 and united 
with the presbyterian church at Leesville. She also belonged to the Women's 
Circle of G.A.R. She always gave herself to others. She cheered those she knew 
along life's pathway. The funeral services were conducted at the Christian church 
by Rev. Lindsey at 4 p.m. Sunday. Burial was in Englewood beside her son, Howard, 
who died in service for his country a number of years ago. The Ladies of the G.A.R. 
conducted the graveside service. The pall bearers were: Otto Gerhardt, Guy 
Williams, Martin Bennett, Gene Brandenburg, Ted Wilson and Edwin Bennett.


SCOTT, Uel Ray 1892 - 1958

1892 on a farm which had been homesteaded by his grandparent and which he and 
his father spent their entire lives. He was united in marriage to Lizzie Brown on 
Feb 6, 1916. He is survived by his wife and a daughter, Betty Sue, of the home.
