Obituary.

Jane St. Clare wife of Alexander St. Clare was born in Jennings county Ind., April 21, 1823, moved to Jasper county about 1869 and has lived in this county most of the time with the exception of three years they resided in Kansas, and the last few years they have resided in Wadena, Ind., Benton county. She died at her home July 21, 1899. She was the mother of 12 children, 9 of whom are still living. She was converted early in life, and united with the M. E. church, but when they moved to this county she and her husband united with the Free Baptist of Rensselaer, of which church she was a member until she joined the church triumphant. Before leaving the house a few remarks and prayer was made by Rev. Tuttle, of Wadena. She was burried at Crockett cemetery Saturday afternoon, where again prayer was offered by the Pastor of the Free Baptist church, F. M. Watkins. A husband, large family of children, grandchildren and greatgrandchildren with many friends are left to mourn her loss.
