Brownfield McCartney. She was born at Farmington, Pa., March 25; 1876 At an early age, however, she moved with her par- ents to Ohiopyle, in that state, where she made her home until her marriage to Rev Charles H. Colegrove October 7, 1897. In early life she became a Christian, and joined the Methodist church in her home town. Soon after her marriage, however, she united with a Baptist church, being baptized by her husband when he was pastor at Unadilla Forks, N. Y. In the twenty-seven years of their married life, her husband has peen pastor of six churches in this state, and in every one of them Mrs. Colegrove has been greatly . beloved. So tactfully, so faithfully, so efficiently and so cheerfully did she serve, she could not be forgotten. She taught in the Sunday schools, she worked in the various church societies, often filling offices in those societies, and at the same time she made her own home and the homes of others where she went radiant with her Chris- tian life. Her home was a home where the children liked to come. She knew how to make them feel her welcome, and she made their stay most pleasant. Young people, and older ones too, found the same cheer when they came into her presence. At the time ot her last illness she was the teacher of the Philathea class and president of the Woman's Missionary society in the Raymond church. Along with her activities in the home and in the church, she formed many friend- ships also in the W. C. T. U. and in the Eastern Star. Besides her husband, Mrs. Cole- grove, leaves two sons, Frederick and Henry; her mother, Mrs. Elizabeth McCartney, who has been helping care for her for several weeks; two aunts, Mrs. Clara Vaughan and Mrs. Frances Thorpe, of Ohiopyle, Pa., and one brother, Henry McCartney, of Union- town, Pa. All of these and several relatives of Mr. Colegrove were pret- ent at the funeral.
