- Mrs. W.J. Cassity.
Mrs. Jane Knoll was born in Platt county, Mo., November 28, 1898 and departed this life Sunday evening May 10, 1903. Mrs. Cassity was sick only a few days with pneumonia and her death came as a great shock to her family and friends leaving four little ones, her husband, father, mother, and four sisters to mourn her loss. Death is always sad when it takes our dear loved ones, but especially so when the wife and mother is taken out of the home. It leaves a vacant place which never can be filled, how much the dear little ones need a mothers care and love, how sweet the name, mother, sounds to our ears, those little ones, two boys and two girls, the eldest eight years and the youngest four months, left without mother. Can there be any deeper sorrow or trouble than home without a mother, but there is a joy and peace when we think of mother at home in Heaven. Early in life Mrs. Cassity gave her heart to Christ and has ever since lived a true consistent Christian life. The funeral was held at the German Evangelical church Tuesday at 2 p.m. conducted by her pastor, Rev. Kliphardt assisted by Rev. Erfmier. Her remains were tenderly laid to rest in the Holton cemetery, there to await the coming of our Lord and Saviour.
