Obituary

SIMMS - Frances, widow of Col. R C Simms, died in Lewistown, Ill, 21 Feb 1871, in her 80th year. May her daus - especially the one who bears the sainted mother's name (Frances R) fill up that mother's place in the Church. Other names, so pleasantly associated with my pastorate at Lewistown, come fresh to memory; some of these have crossed the river, others lingering on its margin. Where is the lovely family of Stephen A Dewey, John McNeil, John Tompkins, Hugh Lamaster, Jacob Weber, J G Davidson, S H Pitkin, John Shover, and my highly esteemed friend Myron Phelps, endeared to me by many acts of kindness not to be forgotten?... N. G. Berryman, Cambridge, Mo. (In part taken from Fulton Democrat, published at Lewistown, Ill.)
