"Mrs. Rosetta Hannah Kiser, aged 73, died at her home in Pittsburg township, Mitchell county, Kansas, February 10th, 1923.
Mrs. Kiser was sick during her last illness but a short time. She was suddenly taken ill Wednesday, February 7, and rapidly developed pneumonia, culminating in death, which sad news was a great shock to relatives and friends.
The deceased was the wife of Christopher Kiser, who passed away December 29th, 1917. Mrs. Kiser was born near Madison, Wisconsin, and at an early age, she became a member of the Methodist Episcopal church, with her parents, Mr. and Mrs. James Schooley, early settlers near Beloit, Kansas.
Her brother, William E. Schooley, was one of the first county commissioners of Mitchell county, her brother-in-law, Mr. Edward Abbott, was the second sheriff of Mitchell county, her uncles [sic], Doctor Schooley, was among the first physicians of Mitchell county, and her sister, Mrs. Sarah Abbott, was one of the first school teachers of this county.
At the age of 19 years, the deceased was united in marriage to Christopher Kiser, of Monroe, Iowa, who had been mustered out of the Civil War, after a service of over four years, at Pellow, Iowa. The young couple desired to make their fortune together, "Out Where The West Begins," and they settled in the Pleasant Valley neighborhood, southwest of Glen Elder, where, at that time, the early pioneers were harassed by the wild Indians, and the buffalo roamed the prairies. Mrs. Kiser often times protected the little dugout, with bracing the wood ax against the door, while her husband worked at the old mill, at Waterville, Kansas.
About the year of 1880, they moved to Pittsburg township, where they made their future home.
To this union, eight children were born: Frank adjoining the old home; Willian [sic], deceased, Mrs. E. G. Davis of Kansas City, Mrs. W. G. Henry of Osborne, Kansas; Grace, who died in infancy; Miss Nettie, living with her mother; Chris, of Amarillo, Texas; and John of Topeka, Kansas. All of her children surviving, were present at the funeral service.
Mrs. Kiser was loved and respected by relatives and friends and her life was a life of sacrifice for others. She was an ardent church and Sunday School worker aiding her husband in his 25 years service as superintendent of the Plain View Sunday School.
The funeral services were conducted by the Rev. Mr. Bluntr [sic], of Cawker City at the Plain View church, south of Cawker, Tuesday, February 13th, at 2:30 o'clock. The minister was assisted by his church choir, who comforted the distressed in this sad hour.
The minister selected for his sermon, scriptures from Revelation, and read a poem, entitled, "The Ribbon, The Ring and The Rose." The choir sang, "Jesus Lover of My Soul," "No Night There," "Saved By Grace," and "God Shall Wipe Away All Tears."
The casket was decorated with beautiful foral [sic] offerings from relatives and friends, and the Plain View Sunday school presented a special floral remembrance, as a memento of friendship.
After the funeral services the remains were taken to Prairie Grove cemetery, where the last sad rites were spoken.
No our dear Mother is not far away,
Her spirit is here, but not bound in clay,
In moments of reflection, we hear her saw—
'I tell you, whey have not died,
Their hands clasp yours not mine,
They walk, now, here, at your side,
They live, they know, they see,
They have become divine.
They shout in every breath,
All Is Eternal Life, There Is No Death.'
Card of Thanks
We desire to thank all the dear friends who assisted to kindly, at the time of our bereavement, and the loss of one who meant the most to each and all of us, our dear Mother.
The Children."
