Linton On Wed. morn, Sep. 21, 1887, at 4:40, Mrs. Robert J. Linton quietly and peacefully ended her days on earth and went to join the countless army who have gone before into the land from whence no traveler returns. She was in her 51st year, and during all her life she was an earnest and zealous Christian woman. There seemed no task that her Master desired her to do, that she would not do. She was a member of the First Presbyterian Church of this place, and when her health would permit she was always found among the worshippers. During the past 8 months she knew she could not get well, but there was no complaining or fretting. Her thoughts seemed to be "Thy will, not mine, be done", and when the time came she loosed her hold on earthly things and went to join the host where sorrow and parting are never known. She was m. to Mr. Linton on Aug. 30, 1864, and leaves a husband and 3 children to mourn her loss. The funeral services took place on Fri. at 2 PM from the Presbyterian Church, and the remains were interred in the Bellevernon cemetery. Mrs. Caroline S. Linton was b. at Hudson, OH, 1836. She was the 3rd child of Rev. Giles and Mrs. Electa Doolittle. Her father was a man prevalent in prayer and unshaken faith in a covenant keeping God. He d. in the prime of his days, committing his children in the hand of his God, saying, though I had a bag of gold to leave to them, I could not be as sure of their being provided for. Mrs. Linton ever felt that her father's prayers followed her. At 8 years of age she was placed in the primary department of the Hudson Female Seminary receiving most of her education in that institution, under the charge of the most accomplished New England teachers, but later was sent to the Western Female Seminary at Oxford, OH, where she graduated in '58, and taught successfully for a few years. In '64 she was m. to Robert J. Linton, and they moved to this place in 1870. Three children were given them, and it was her unspeakable joy to see them all brought into the visible church. The tender kindnesses from friends and neighbors that flowed in a constant stream into Mrs. Linton's sick room, are known only to the Lord, and her sincere thanks and those of the family are returned to all with prayer that the Lord will abundantly reward all with his grace.
