    • Mary Cassity, daughter of Armstrong and Ruth Anne Cassity, was born in Bath County, Ky., Nov. 5, 1833, came with her parents to Linn Co., Mo. in 1851, being one of the early pioneer families of Linn county. She was united in marriage with George Ross March 27, 1869, living on their farm 3 1/2 miles southeast of Browning until Nov. 29, 1910 when on account of her feeble health they moved to their present home in Browning where she died December 7, 1916, aged 83 years, 1 month and two days.
      She confessed her faith in her Savior and obeyed Him in His holy ordinances, becoming a member of the Church of Christ at Enterprise, Mo. in 1859. She was a faithful communicant and worked in the vineyard of her Lord and Master and died in an abiding hope and full assurance of faith in a glorious resurrection.
      She leaves to mourn her death, her beloved husband, two brothers, William and Trumbo Cassity; four sisters, Mrs. Minerva Hawkins, Mrs. Elizabeth Hayes, Mrs. American Moore and Mrs. Amanda Smith. A brother, Alvin Cassity and a sister, Mrs. Sarah Jenkins have preceded her to the spirit world.
      Funeral services were conducted at the Christian church by Mr. B.D. Bolling Saturday at 11 o’clock after which her body was interred in the beautiful Jenkins cemetery to await the resurrection morn. Mr. Ross and relatives have the sympathy of all in their hours of grief.
