Mrs. Mary Clement Sayre was born in Shelby county, Ohio, August 11, 1847, and died at her home in this village Friday afternoon, June 17, 1910, aged nearly 63 years. When she was about 14 years of age she moved with her parents to Welton, Iowa, near which place she lived and married till with her husband made a home at Farina, Illinois. In 1877 she and her family came [to] this country and lived on a homestead on Davis Creek. Later they moved to the village and built that house where the writer lives. Here two of her boys, Walter and Forry died of typhoid fever. Later the family made a home at Nortonville and a few years later they moved to Milton, Wisconsin. When she found that she had at the best only a short time to live she and her husband came to their home - North Loup - that she might find last resting place in the city of the dead where her two boys and her father are resting. Her health failed her several years ago and it was not expected she would live long, and since she returned she had had several bad spells, but at the day of her death she seemed to be feeling better, and while her husband was at the well for a pail of water her spirit passed to that home from which it will never return.
Funeral services were held from the S. D. B. church Sunday forenoon conducted by Rev. Geo. B. Shaw. She leaves to mourn her death a husband, two sons and a daughter besides a host of other relatives and friends. While living at Welton she was converted and became a member of the Seventh day Baptist church at that place. At the time of her death she was a member of the S. D. B. church at New Auburn, Wis., where she lived for a short time.
