The Thomas Tribune 1/13/1910

Mrs. Roberts Dead

Mrs. Alice Roberts, wife of Clarence C. Roberts, died at the home in 
Thomas Monday morning (10 Jan 1910) after a long and painful illness. 
She had been ill five months of consumption and during the last weeks 
of her life her sufferings were intense. Imbued with a Christian 
spirit this good woman murmured not of the fate that awaited her nor 
of the almost unbearable pain that racked her frail being. She had 
all that medical skill could give, but all efforts earthly were in 
vain. She was a member of the River Brethren church and had been in 
the mission work for twelve years. Mr. and Mrs. Roberts had reared 
seven orphans and two are left sorrowing in the home so lately made 
desolate by the death of the loving, Christian foster mother. Funeral 
services were held at Bethany Church Tuesday afternoon by Rev. D. L. 
Doub and the burial occurred at the cemetery near by.
