MRS. ANNA K. WALTZ.
.Mrs. Anna K. Walt., relict of the
late Jacob Waltz, died at the resi
dence of her son, Ex-Prothono-tary
James P. Waltz, Friday
morning, August 17, at SJ o'clock
from stomach, kidney and heart
trouble, after a life of usefulness
of eighty years.
Miss Anna E. McEltlowny, for
that was Mrs. Waltz's maiden
name, was born November -i,
--7i, in Holfast township, which
was then a portion of Hodford
county. She was united iu mar
riage with Jacob Waltz in Is at
her homo by Elder Starr of the
ltaptist church. They then mov
ed to Thompson towuship, where
they resided until the year 170.
Here the seven children that
blessed this union were born.
They then moved into Franklin
county, residing in Warreu town
ship five years. Again they mov
ed back to Fulton county, taking
up their residence on the Web
ster farm in the vicinity of Web
ster Mills. After a residence
there of fifteen years, they locat
ed at the present homo in Tod
township, whore the husband
died in ls-,17.
Of the family of seven children
four survive. They are: James
P. and Esther, at homo; Marga
ret, wife of David (iordou, of
Thompson township, and Eliza
beth, wife of Albert lliirr. John,
Jacob aud Sophia died along in
the sixties. Surviving also is
oue sister, Mrs. Deborah, wife of
Otho Sowders, of Tod township,
and two brothers, John McEl
downey, of Hartford City, Iud.,
and William McEldowuey, of
( it in, this county.
.Mrs. Waltz was u good Chris
tian woman. Fo" thirty-live
years she was a member of the
Primitive ltaptist church and re
mained faithful uuto the end.
She was charitable aud exerted
every effort to relieve the suffer
ing aud distress of those iu need.
It is said that no one ever asked
almsofjher aud wont away empty
handed. This together with her
many other good traits made her
universally beloved. She was
well versed on the current topics
of the day, beiug a great reader
and a close student. She could
converse intelligently on almost
any subject, and, being possessed
of a remarkable memory, could
relate with accuracy events that
transpired long ago.
Hut her mainstay was her re
ligion. When in the month of
May she paid a visit to relatives
at Touoloway her daughter re
marked that she stood the trip so
well, she said: "The Lord is with
me. lie sustains me." She was
conscious to the last, autl recog
nized those about her.
She had an attack of grippe
some two or throe years ago, aud
ever since then was frequent
ly attacked by sudden spells of
sickuoss uow better, and again
worse. Hut these attacks grad
ually weakened her and helped
along other complications, which
ended the career of one w hom it
can truthfully be said: "She will
be missed."
Interment was made in the old
Union cemetery at Timber Kidge.
"Soft bothy earthen pillow aud
dreanilessly serene thy rost;may
charity all thy faults beneath her
mantle hide, aud sweet-faced, un
forgetting love keep more than
Roman guard above thy waiting
dust. May the last Grand As
size reveal that without spot or
blemish thou hast taken up thy
abode in the Holy Senate of tht
Redeemed."
