Mrs. John Johnston, aged 54 years, died at her home, the old Johnston Homestead, two miles south of this city on Tuesday morning of last week, September 4, at 12:30 o'clock, after an illness of several weeks. The funeral services, conducted by Rev. E. E. Baldwin, of Ola, were held at the family home Tuesday afternoon, interment being in Brearley Cemetery.
Mrs. Johnston had been in poor health for some time and since the death of her husband on Feb. 14, last, her grief had been inconsolable.
Mrs. Johnston, whose maiden name was Banks, was a representative of a prominent pioneer family. She was a devoted and faithful member of the Baptist Church, and with a woman possessed of the highest type of Christian character.
She is survived by ten children, seven sons and three daughters, Harold, Frank, Lewis, Vernon, Joe, Meritt and Edward, and Misses Sue, Flora and Mae.
The Post-Dispatch joins the many friends of the grief-stricken family in tendering sympathy in their great bereavement.
