Crist, Sister Catharine, wife of Eld. H. F. Crist, and daughter of Bro. J. M. and Sister Mary Garst, formerly of Roanoke, Va., born in Clark County, Ohio, Aug. 3, 1864, died at her home, 724 West Cedar Street, Olathe, Kans., Jan. 29, 1914, aged 49 years, 5 months and 26 days. She moved with her parents to Macoupin County, Ill., the same year she was born, where they resided in the Pleasant Hill congregation. At the age of sixteen she moved with her parents to Beatrice, Gage Co., Nebr. She was united in marriage to Eld. H. F. Crist Dec. 15, 1881. They journeyed happily together for thirty-two years. Five sons and three daughters blessed this union. Mother united with the Church of the Brethren Oct. 16, 1884, in the Olathe congregation, of which she was a member at the time of her death. She lived devoted, self-sacrificing life. She was afflicted twenty-five years, and for a number of years was a sufferer from chronic Bright’s disease, but she bore her intense suffering patiently. The immediate cause of her death was uraemic poison. She was an affectionate wife and mother. The church has lost a worthy member, and the community will miss a charitable neighbor. Her husband, four sons and three daughters, two brothers and two sisters survive. All her children are members of the Church of the Brethren except two. An infant son, her parents, two sisters and one brother preceded her in death. Services in the Olathe church by Eld. R. F. McCune, of Princeton, Kans., assisted by Eld. H. T. Brubaker, of Olathe, Kans. Text, Rev. 14: 13. Interment in the Olathe cemetery. – (Mrs.) Pearl (Musselman) Crist., R. D. 1, Paola, Kans.
