The Washington Republican Washington County Friday February 28, 1896 Died:--Mrs. Jennie DURHAM, the wife of John DURHAM, Friday at 12 o'clock February 21, at their new home in Mound City, Mo. She was sick one week of pneumonia. She suffered greatly while sick and often spoke of friends here. She has six children living; five small children there, one daugther in this county. Mr. Durham's were formerly of Washington, and I can say they have the deep sympathy of the community here in their sudden bereavement. Mr. Durham's while her, belonged to the Christian church in good standing. Mrs. Durham was a true wife, loving mother, kind friend. Those who knew her best loved her most. She died in full hope of the rest that remains for the Christian. "Blessed are they who die in the Lord." Tenderly we commend the sorrowing friends, the bereaved husband and children to Him, who is able to dry every eye, and has promised to be a present help in time of trouble. May they be upheld by the blessed hope of a reunion in that home where there will be no more t! ears, no more partings, no more lights of lamps, neigher lights of sun, for the Lord God shall give them light and they shall reign forever and ever. Written by friend and sister of the same faith and hope.
