In Memoriam
French - Leah Malvina Field was born March 2nd 1826 in Fayette county (sic), Pennsylvania, and died in Edgar, Nebr. Aug. 30, 1894.
She was converted and united with the Baptist church in 1842 and for many years a consistent member of that church.
On Nov. 30, 1846 she was married to James W. French, and as the fruit of that marriage six children were born to them, three sons and three daughters, all of whom except one son are living to mourn her departure. Besides these she leaves a husband, three sisters and a brother to mourn her loss.
In Jan. 1890 she came with her husband to Nelson, Nebr. where she resided until in Oct. 1892 she went to Oak to live with her daughter, her daughter having recently removed to Edgar, she spent her last days there.
In June 1874 she transferred her membership from the Baptist to the Christian church and since then though in feeble health so that of late she has not been able to attend regularly upon the services of the Sanctuary, yet she has lived her religion and died in the faith and has gone home to be with Christ and "at the resurrection to be raised up in glory, to be openly acknowledged and acquitted in the day of judgment, and made perfectly blessed in the full enjoyment of God to all eternity."
