The Anthony Weekly Bulletin Harper County Friday July 9, 1897 At Rest. Mrs. Mary L. KENNEDY, died at the home of her brother, J.E. DRURY in this city on Saturday morning July 3. Mrs. Kennedy was born in Cardington, Ohio, and was 30 years old at the time of her death. She was the wife of Ed Kennedy, a conductor on the M.K.& T. railroad, and they made their home at New Franklin, Missouri, and the lady was here on a visit for her health at the time of her death. She was a victim of tubercular trouble and was a remarkable patient, never giving her attendants unnecessary trouble and always doing all she could to cheer up those dear to her. Life was dear to her, yet she expressed an anxiety to go, because of the trouble she thought she was making by her protracted illness. She had the services of the best physicians, good nursing and the constant care of loved ones, but the disease is unrelenting and death has claimed another that was of unusual worth here. Among the warm friends acquired by the deceased during her residence here was Rev. R.B. ENGLE of the Methodist church, and it was her request that she should join his church and that he should preach h! er funeral, and both requests were complied with, the funeral taking place at the family residence Sunday afternoon, the interment following in Forest Park cemetery. Mrs. Kennedy while a comparative stranger in Anthony and an invalid, made many warm friends who will with the family mourn her death. The husband, the mother, sisters, and brother all loved her for her true worth, and they are the afflicted ones; to them The Bulletin extends the sympathy of the community.
