Mrs. Elijah Scott passed peacefully to her reward Saturday evening, Dec. 3rd,
shortly after 9 o’clock.

Lucy M. King was of pure French descent, both of her parents, Alexander and Lucy
King, having come to 
this country from France, her father having been a sea captain for many years.  She
was born at Cairo, Ill., 
Oct. 4, 1848.  She has two sisters, Mrs. Carrie Siager, Indianapolis, Ind., and Mrs.
Mary Baer, Lansing, Mich.  
There were also two brothers, both soldiers in the great Civil War, Frank and
Joseph.  These brothers are 
probably both dead, although there is no record available to the Scott family of
what has become of them.  
They have simply gone out of the circle of relatives here with absolutely no
knowledge of their 
whereabouts.

The King family moved from Cairo, Ill. to Fremont, Ohio, and there the parents died.
 It was there also that 
Lucy King, the subject of this notice, was married to Elijah J. Scott Feb. 29, 1864.
 The newly wedded 
couple began housekeeping near York, Townsend township.  Four children were born to
them, Frank, 
William, Estella and Ernest.  Estella passed away Aug. 18, 1892, and William Dec.
24, 1908.

Mrs. Scott leaves to mourn her death, her husband, two sons, three grandchildren,
three great-
grandchildren and two sisters.

She was a charter member of the Woman’s Relief Corps, a member of Clyde Presbyterian
Church, and was 
much concerned in the work of the church and faithful attendant upon the services as
long as her health 
would permit.  The last Sunday services she and her husband were permitted to attend
together were on 
Dec. 12, 1920. While much interested in the work of the church she was none the less
domestic in her 
tastes, a splendid housekeeper and mother, a good wife and kind neighbor, as a host
of friends will testify.

The funeral was held at the residence on Tuesday morning conducted by Rev. Isaiah
Revennaugh and under 
the auspices of the W.R.C. Interment was made in McPherson  cemetery.
