Obituary
Emaline [sic] E., daughter of John D. and Sarah W. Heighway, was born in Warren County, Ohio, July 10, 1838, and departed this life at Lafayette, Ind., May 18, 1918, being 79 years, 10 months and 8 days of age.
In 1844 she came with her parents to Indiana, and settled on a farm in Franklin township, Kosciusko county, where she grew to womanhood. On Jan. 2 7, 1864, she was united in marriage to Wm. T. Baker, who still survives his companion of 54 years. To them were born eight children, two of whom have preceded their mother in death, Mrs. N. N. Latimer who died in 1903, and Orville who died when but a child. Those living are A. E., of Chicago, A. M., of Little Falls, Minn., F. M., of Minneapolis, Minn., Rose, wi fe of E. C. Baker, of Burket, C. A., of Chicago, and Anna, wife of F. M. Jenkins, of Danville, Ill.
About the year 1858 she united with the Yellow Creek Baptist church and later becoming a consistent member of the Sevastopol Baptist church. On March 9, 1890 she transferred her membership to the newly organized church at Mentone. Though being absent from the jurisdiction of the church much of the time, yet she remained a true member to her death. The testimony of those who knew best is that she was a true Christian, her life constantly measuring up to her profession.
Besides husband and children, she leaves to mourn their loss, 8 grandchildren; three brothers, Albert of Fulton county, Marion of Mentone, and Frank of Peru, Ind., and other relatives, and a large circle of friends who will miss her. The loss to loved ones and friends is but her gain, for she , like the Apostle, could say, "For me to die is gain". "We sorrow not as those who have no hope", for her firm faith and constant assurance was that, "All things work together for good to those who love the Lord.".
