DEATH TAKES AN EARLY PIONEER
Mrs. Sarah Montgomerie passes away Sunday night
Mrs. Sarah Montgomerie, 85, died Sunday evening at the home of her daughter, Mrs. Allie Farmer, from an attack of acute indigestion, complicated with the infirmities due to advanced years. She had been stricken but a few days prior but her health had not been robust for the past year.
Mrs. Montgomerie, daughter of the late Andrew Newton, was born in this county July 2, 1853, at the farm home a few miles west of Hartville. Her entire lifetime had been spent in this county where she was universally known and loved.
On January 3, 1872, she was united in marriage to Jesse Albert Mott and to this union two children were born, Fred Mott of Britton, Oklahima, and Mrs. Allie Farmer of this town. Mr. Mott died on June 27, 1875. On September 28, 1878, she was married to Thomas J. Montgomerie, who died February 10, 1895, since which time Mrs. Montgomerie has made her home with her daughter.
She early became a christian convert and united with the Christian church of Hartville. She was a charter member of the local Rebekah lodge and was also a member of the Eastern Star lodge.
Up to her last illness Mrs. Montgomerie enjoyed excellent vision and was completely possessed of her mental faculties a source of pleasure and inspiration to all her acquaintances.
She is survived by her son Mr. Mott, and daughter, Mrs. Farmer, a grandson, T. J. Farmer, Hartville; one brother John Newton, West Plains, and one sister, Mrs. Mary Scott, Southwest City. Her son, brother and sister all came here to attend her last hours.
Funeral services, directed by the Holdren Funeral Home, were held at the Christian church Wednesday afternoon, the Reverend A. T. Mahanay of Springfield, officiating and interment followed in the Pleasant Hill cemetery.
The services at the church and the cemetery were under the joint charge of the Rebekahs and the Eastern Star. Special music was rendered by a quartet composed of Harold Pool, Reed Coday, Mrs. Carl Seal and Miss Beulah Mae Sellers.
The honorary pallbearers were C. C. Carter, E. B. Coday, R. F. Adams, Sr., E. B. Archer, Jack Bane and W. H. Nickleand the active pallbearers were Raymond Stowe, Morris Bear, M. C. Coday, Gib Chandler, I. W. Fuge, Vic Evans, Jess Pool and Dan Simmons.
Only a part of the crowd that called to pay their last respects could enter the church building and in the crowd was a number of friends from surrounding towns.
