Roena Roush Allensworth, wife of George H. Allensworth, died at her home near Smith Center, Kansas, May 15, after a lingering illness of seven months.

She was married to George H. Allensworth December 23, 1880, living in Knox City until four years age when she moved with her husband and family to Smith county, Kansas.
She leaves to mourn their loss a devoted husband and six daughters, five sons, nine brothers and two sisters and a host of sorrowing friends. Her father and mother and one sister have preceded her to the better land. She was born in Mason county, West Virginia, February 28, 1868, being at the time her death 40 years, 2 months and 26 days of age.

As a wife she was noble and true and had full confidence of all with whom she associated. But she is gone, her life work is done. She left a bright and beautiful in- ??? which will shine and beautify many days yet to come.
Her remains were brought to Knox City, her former home, and after funeral services which were conducted by Elder R. Rhoades in the Christian Church, she was quietly laid to rest in the Knights of Pythias Cemetery in the presence of a large co???? (the rest I can't read or is missing)
