OBITUARY.
Miss Lizzie Maupin, daughter of Rev. William and Rhoda Maupin, died at the
home of her sister, in Kansas, September 27th, 1890, after long, patient
suffering. She was surrounded by many dear friends, and her dear mother was
at her bedside, but when the summons came for her to leave this world of
trials and suffering, she was perfectly willing and ready to go to meet her
beloved father who had gone on before.
Lizzie was in Kansas teaching school when she was taken sick. She had taught
the previous year in the same school, where she had formed many dear
friends. She was born at Hartsville, Ind., and died at Cullison, Kans., aged
28 years and 3 days. She was received into the church by Rev. B. F. Cooper
at Hopewell, in 1878. Lizzie lived a faithful, christian life, and was loved
by a large circle of relatives and friends.
The remains were brought here and interred at Dupont, Oct. 1st. The Masonic
Order took charge of the remains at the grave, where beautiful and
appropriate services were held.
"Blessed are the dead that die in the Lord."
She is at rest in her home above waiting for the loved ones to join her.
~ F. H. H.

It is with feelings of deepest sorrow that we speak of our worthy and much
beloved friend, Edward Hutton, who departed this life on Thursday morning,
September 25th, 1890. Mr. Hutton was born in Harrisburg, Adams county, Pa.;
April 1s, 1806; united in marriage to Mary Ann Baumgardner, of Miami county,
Ohio, in 1834. This union resulted in the birth of seven children, all of
whom are left to mourn his loss, except two daughters, who have passed on
before. These children are all obedient and dutiful, and are a great comfort
to their mother, whose life, we believe they will try to make comfortable
and happy. Mr. Hutton was a kind and loving husband, a true and devoted
father, and a constant Christian. He became a member of the Baptist church
in 1846, in the faith of which he has always had a bright hope. Therefore
his friends weep not, as they who have no hope. Funeral services were held
at the house, and were attended by a large number of sympathizing neighbors
and friends. The services were conducted by Rev. John Waters, after which
the remains were laid at rest in the Rush Branch cemetery, to await the
resurrection. May the God of the widow, and the Father of the fatherless,
comfort and sustain the bereaved hearts.
