Lewis
At 8:30 Thursday morning Mrs. Lewis, wife of Dr. T. M. Lewis, died after an illness of a complication of troubles which begun Monday afternoon. She was 71 years old and is survived by her husband, two daughters, Misses Georgia and Margaret Lewis, and four sons, Mr. A. A. Lewis, of Covington, Rev. John M. Lewis, of Carthage, O., Mr. Lucien M. Lewis, of Shawanee, Oregon, and Mr. Robert T. Lewis, of this place. Mrs. Lewis was a Miss Alcorn, a sister of Mrs. W. H. Higgins and Judge J. W. Alcorn, and was born in Lincoln county. She had been a devout member of the Christian church for more than a half century and few, if any better women have ever lived in Stanford. She was a wife and mother in all those words imply, a neighbor beloved most by those who knew her best and a friend in need. It has been the writer's privilege to know her in her home for the past three years and a better, more charitable, kind and sympathetic woman he has never known. May her good deeds here be emulated and her reward in the better world be a bright and shining crown. Mrs. Lewis' death breaks up the once happy home and the grief of the family is indeed pitiable. She was loved because she was wife and mother and worshipped because of her unstinted love and affection for the members of her home circle. May those who are passing under the rod of affliction soon realize that their loss is her eternal gain and that her trouble and cares are ended and joy and happiness now reign supreme. The burial will occur in Buffalo cemetery after services at the home by Rev. L. M. Omer at 3 o'clock, this, Friday afternoon.
