She was married there to Chas. W. HAWES, Jan. 25, 1880. She has since lived in Morrowville, or vicinity, until her death which occurred Friday, Feb. 15, 1901. Besides her husband and a son here, she had a mother, two sisters, and a brother in Oklahoma. One of her sisters, Miss Blanche THURSTON, of Oklahoma City, and Mrs. J.H. EVANS of Topeka, a sister of Mrs. HAWES were here to attend the funeral. Mrs. HAWES had won a large number of friends during her residence in the community, of a kind, quiet disposition she was beloved by all. Her sudden removal from our midst by death, has been a sorrow not only to her own family but to a wide circle of friends. The bereaved ones have the sympathy of the entire community. As Christian people we pray that God's grace may be given to sustain in this great affliction. Mrs. HAWES was connected with the order of the Royal Neighbors at this place, the local chapter of this order attended the funeral in a body, as did also the Odd Fellows. The funeral services held at Morrowville M.E. church, Feb. 19, at 2 p.m. were conducted by the writer. The remains were laid to rest in the Morrowville cemetery. C.E. Trueblood.
