Obituary of Mrs. Elias Arnold.

Susie Viola Lesh was borti on June 3, 1872, in Johnson county, Mo. She tvas the second child of a family of four and the only daughter of Jacob M. and Katherine Lesh. When a small child her parents moved to Alexander, Ohio, where they lived until Susie was 17. From Ohio they camo to Jasper county, Ind., where she spent the remainder 'f her life. She was married to Elias Arnold on Feb. 13, 1890. To this union were born six children: Harry, Sylvannus, Mrs. Katherine Waymire, Mrs. Marie Stoner, Bethel and little David Elias. Her mother, having preceded her to a better world on Jan. 27, 1900, and her father March 24, 1916, she leaves to mourn their loss an affectionate husband, three sons and three daughters and two little grandchildren; also three brothers, John V. Lesh, of Rensselaer; G. S. Lesh, of Blanchard, Mich., and D. E. Lesh, of Menominee, Wis.; a foster sister, Mrs. Relva Morganegg, of Batavia, HL, and numerous relatives and friends. Mrs. Arnold’s health began to fail about a year and a half ago but she was able to attend to her duties until the past eight weeks, during which time she has suffered much. She was taken to Wesley hospital, where she remained for four weeks, but her longing for her home and dear ones was so great that she was brought home a few days before her death. She passed away Sunday evening, Aug. 6, 1916, aged 44 years, 2 months and 3 days... ♦- ;TT~~~L... Mrs. Arnold was reared in the faith of the German Baptist church by devoted parents and she was a member of the same church. Nd mere words can express the beauty of character of this earnest Christian woman. She was a loving, devoted wife and motner, who found her greatest happiness in unselfish service for her family. She was a careful, efficient housekeeper, presiding over a home that is ideal in love and harmony. To her friends she was generous to a fault, and the needy always found in her a benefactor. She never for a moment bore malice toward anyone and a quotation that often fell from her lips, “Return good for evil,” was the principal that governed her life, with stranger and friends alike.
