Mrs. Emily Carr Martin.

Emily Carr was born March 30, 1844 in Franklin county, Kentucky near Frankfort and died November 30, 1911, at the home of her daughter Mrs. Mildred Meats, aged 67 years and 8 months.

She was the daughter of Wm. Payton and Nancy Carr. She was united in marriage to David Zebediah Martin October 2, 1860; he preceded her in death in 1904. To this union were born eleven children, of whom four only survive her. Eight of her children lived to be grown, three dying in infancy. Those living are: Mrs. S. A. D. DeHart, Enid, Ok.; Mrs. Hester Lane Morath, Perry, Ill.; Marvin Martin, Grandview, Wash.; and Mrs. Mildred Meats of Tempest, Ill. She leaves also one brother Alvin Carr of Stillwell, Ill. and three sisters, Mrs. Hattie Markland, Ellensburg, Wash., Mrs. M. L. Reed of Rich Hill, Mo. and Mrs. Ophelia Markland of Stillwell. Twelve grandchildren and one great-grandchild are left to mourn their loss.

She joined the Methodist Epsicopal church south in Morrellville in 1892 and remained a member for the same until death came to release her from her sufferings. She lived a true and earnest Christian life. She was of a cheerful, helpful disposition, always ready to help others and looking on the brightest side of life.

During her sickness she would frequently call upon her Savior. Her words during her sickness were: "Savior, my precious Savior." While friends sorrow, yet they sorrow not at those who have no hope. The Savior has come and mother has gone to be with Him and is at rest, happy rest.

Funeral at Morrellville church Saturday at 11 o'clock a. m., Rev. G. G. Maple of Perry officiating. The Lutheran choir furnished the music. Burial in Morrellville cemetery.
