In Memoriam.
Mary Nelson was born in Bedford Co., Va., Oct. 14th, 1804, and died in Cowgill, Mo., Nov. 24th, 1889, aged 85 years, 1 month and 10 days. She was married to Vincent [Vinson] Nelson in December 1821 and was the mother of eleven children. Her husband died in 1853, some the children being quite young, hence many responsibilities devolved upon her in the care and education of the children. To meet these duties she felt the need of Divine helps, so she put her hand in God's, and joined the M. E. Church South, continuing as a member until her death. She was a good mother and true and successfully discharged her duties to her family and the church. Of the children born to her, five are living, all of whom stood beside their mother's grave except a son, who was absent on account of illness.
A Christian she lived, a Christian she died, and a Christian now is with her Lord and loved ones in heaven. A dying mother once said, "Children, sing a song of praise to God." Afflictions are all over now and mother, who sang and read her bible here on earth, now sings on the other shore, "Children, sing a song of praise to God."
The funeral services were conducted by Rev. L. V. Ismond at the M. E. Church, Tuesday evening and the remains laid to rest in the Cottage Grove cemetery.   L. V. I.

PLEASANT HILLL. – Mr. and Mrs. O'Neal mourn the loss of their youngest child, Mildred, who died May 20. For over 2 years she had lived to cheer the home of her parents and sisters and had won her way to the hearts of all who knew her. She was indeed the pride and pet of her home, but after a short illness she gave up her young life and went to join the host of whom the Savior said, "Of such is the Kingdom of Heaven." The funeral was preached by Rev. Miller who spoke so feelingly and cheeringly from the words "Blessed are the dead that die in the Lord," and she was laid to rest in Cain Cemetery May 22. To their many friends who were so kind to them in their affliction and bereavement the parents return their sincere thanks. May the great God reward them.

[OASTER, JOHN]
Maryville Republican (Maryville, Missouri), Thursday, June 6, 1889
LAMAR STATION – The sad news of the death of John Oaster, which took place at Blanchard, Iowa, on May 23, has just reached the writer. He was the third white man who settled in Lincoln township; came first a single man but went back to his old home and returned with his bride and settled on the farm now owned by Ed. Roberts. He was loyal to his God and to his country—a staunch Republican and a lifelong Christian. The first preaching in this part of the country was by a young man by the name of Marvin, a missionary sent out by the M. E. church, South, with headquarters at Oregon, Mo. He formed a class in here and John Oaster was a member of that class. Rev. Marvin was afterwards made a bishop and was one of the bright lights in his church. He took a trip around the world and wrote it up in book form, which is a delightful book to read. He too has passed to his reward. I believe John Oaster is the last brother of that class to drop the curtain of life and go to that land of rest prepared for the children of God. He leaves the loving, devoted wife of his youth, five daughters, all married, many grandchildren and three or four great grandchildren to mourn their loss. He was sick a long time and it was beautiful to visit their home see the love existing between the aged man and wife. Once the writer asked, "Is he much sick?" and the reply was, "We cannot tell, his wife pets him so." His remains rest in the Blanchard cemetery, where he sleeps until the last trumpet shall sound and we will all awake from out last long sleep in the grave and arise to meet our loving Savior in the clouds.

TOAD HOLLOW – On Tuesday, May 3rd, the death angel came and plucked from the home circle of Mr. and Mrs. Fielden Orme, their youngest daughter, Bessie, an uncommonly bright child for her age. Her death was very sudden. In the morning she seemed quite well but about half past one she took a spasm which lasted about five hours and from which she never recovered. The blow was a terrible one. This should be a warning to those who are treading the road to destruction. O! why not make your election and peace calling sure, for you know not the hour when the Son of Man cometh. To the bereaved parents we extend our heartfelt sympathy. Weep not for her, she has only gone before for a short time.

[OVERMAN, JANE ROBERTSON]
Maryville Republican (Maryville, Missouri), Thursday, April 4, 1889
Died, at her home in Grundy county, Mo., Mrs. Jane Overman, March 18, 1888 [1889], aged 71 years and 6 days.
Jane Robertson Overman was born in Clark county, Ohio, March 12, 1888 [1818]. At the age of nineteen she was united in marriage with James Overman, Oct. 5, 1837. They removed to Missouri in an early day; entered land and built a home where the smoke of no neighboring chimney was in sight.
Always cheerful and with courage undaunted, she entered into an active western life. Reared eight children, five sons and three daughters. When to clothe them meant to spin, weave, cut and made each garment with her own hands.
Those dear hands now rest quietly over a pulseless breast. And a devoted and tender husband with seven children mourn the loss of that blessed mother.
During the late war, with a brave heart she bade her husband and three [sons?] to go to the front of battle to defend the Union.
For the past eleven years she had been an invalid; confined to her bed. Here her strength of character was revealed. Her patience and fortitude failed not. With calm resignation she submitted to the will of the Lord cheerful to the last.
Always thoughtful for the welfare of those around her, and as Rev. Todd so ably remarked—"A guide to a Christian husband."
The last day of her life was spent as many others in the last eleven years in cheerful conversation with those about her. At intervals knitting on a mitten she had commenced that day for Mrs. John Overman.
Late in the afternoon she was taken with a light spasm, recovering in a few minutes to consciousness only to relapse into the second and the third. After the third she quietly passed away as one falling asleep.
The picture of that sweet white face with its crown of snowy hair nestling among the pillows, will always live in the memory of her children.
Let us be comforted. Mother has only gone before, where we may join her and never again know the sorrow that has burdened our hearts since she left us.   Wm. and Dora.

Death of W. J. Overman.
Yesterday evening at 7 o'clock John Bantz received a telegram informing him of the death of Mr. W. J. Overman at Laredo, Mo. Mr. Overman was for several years engaged with Mr. Bantz in the grocery business in this city, but failing health necessitated his retirement from business about two years ago, since which time he has been travelling in this State and in Arkansas in the hope that travel would restore his health. His hopes met with no realization, a gradual decline in health attending him in his travels. Mr. Overman during his residence in Maryville won the reputation of an honest, manly citizen. He was a member of the Woodmen, Odd Fellow and K. P. Lodges of this city. His interment takes place at Union Grove cemetery in Grundy county today (Thursday).
