After the death of her mother October 1. 1928, she left the home of the Houck family and came home to care for her aged father, whom also survives her. She confessed Christ when seventeen years of age and became a member of Big Walnut Baptist Church j near Reelsville. She was a faithful I member, doing her part in every j way, and attending services at ev- | ery opportunity. Her spirit of self-sacrifice was a marked and beautiful trait of her i character. She was ever thoughtful of j all about her and in her unselfish devotion, delightful to deny herself I pleasure, or ease, for the happiness j of neighbors and friends, as well as | those more near and dear. She will be sadly missed by her aged father, brothers, and sisters, nieces, and nephews. Also by the Houck family whom she loved so dearly. Not only will she be missed | in the home but by a host of other j relatives and friends. There is just one blight side to I Martha’s passing and that is in the i hope that we will join her over I there, where she has gone to join 1 her loved ones gone on before, and j to await the loved ones left behind.
