Elizabeth liorton Lanniog was born in Marlboro, Stark county, Ohio, De cember 13, 1831, died in Pochahontas, Tennessee, December 23, 1899. On many homes this Christmastide a heavy shadow fell when it was known that this nobla woman had passed away. In her daily life she had exemplified the teachings of Him whose festival it is. As daughter, si6ter, wife and mother, friend and christian worker she made plain the "holiness of help fulness." From her home in Ohio she came ta Plymouth, Indiana, and here a year later she married Dr. J. M. Lanning and with him removed to Iowa where they lived for fifteen years, going from there to Kansas, where her son Meek ie now engaged in the practice of medi cine. In 1885 the family removed to Corinth, Mississippi and near there, in I'ochahoDtae, Tennessee, where her son Jay is a physican, her life ended De cember 23, 1891. At her request her remains were brought to Plymouth for interment iu Oak Hill cemetery. Her two youngest eons accompanied the body. Her bus band, who is an invalid, and her oldest eon, who has serious illness in his fam ily, not being able to attend the burial The other near relatives who were present were Doctor T. A. Horton, of this city, and Miss Horton and Mrs. Dr Johnson, of Bourbon, aud severa nephews aud nieces. Early iu life she united with the Methodist church and as a consistent christian added to her faith works, tak ing an active part iu all benevolent movements. As a teacher in Ohio and later in In diana she won and held the hearts of her pupils, many of whom remained ia communication with her to the end re mindiug her of how strong an influence her wise and kindly nature had upon their lives. In the west where the greater part of her married life was passtd, her social graces and liberal culture made her an important factor in the religious and in tellectual developement of the com munities where she made her home. The generous sympathy which l;he members of her household knew so well was expended o the poor and suffering with whom she came in contact. One of her sisters who knew her best

says of her ''There are few people of whom so many good and beautiful things may be truthfully said." When such a woman dies the lives of those to whom she was near and dear are saddened and darkened forever by the loss but the bright light which lies along the way she passed still shines

aud 6hall remain an ever present bless ing to all within its radiance. Court lro-ediiiK'.
