Mrs. J. L. (Mary Emily Holloway) Allison, aged 49 years, died at 11:30 o'clock, Saturday night, June 22, 1907, at her home in Wagoner. She was born in Missouri, February 1860. She was the daughter of Almarine Holloway and Emily H. (Douglas) Holloway. Funeral services were held yesterday afternoon at the Baptist Church, Rev. Gunn, the pastor, officiating. Mrs. Allison leaves a husband, James. L. Allison: three daughters, Frankie, Emma P. and Susan; one son, Arthur "Arty", and many other relatives, for whom the sympathy of many friends are felt and expressed.
For ten years, Mrs. Allison had been an invalid, during much of the time, bedfast. Only the great bearer of our sorrows knows the far stretched agonies she endured. Only He can know with what marvelous patience, resignation and fortitude they were borne. If in the great balancing time there must be a smile for every tear shed, there's a shrill of joy for every pang, if not only every evil word and thought must be placed against every meek and patient moment borne in sorrow—in that blessed time now near at hand, what bowers of beauty must bloom for her bliss; what exaltation of undreamed of happiness must be commensurate with all the travail and pain of mind and body. Then the Sun of Righteousness ill rise with healing in His beams, kiss away the dampness and the death dew, drive away the miasma of sin and death and pain and sorrow, and instill instead into every sluggish heart the delightful balm of eternal life and primordial happiness, across whose path falls no shadow of the night that has passed away forever.
