    • "PASSING OF MRS ANNETTA CATHERINE EBY YARGER.

      "Mrs. Annetta Catherine Eby Yarger, daughter of Elder Enoch and Hetty Howe Eby, was born in Franklin County, Pa., on March 2, 1850. When yet a child she moved with her parents to northern Illinois where she grew to womanhood.

      "On Jan. 1, 1871, she was united in marriage to William A Yarger of Orangeville, Ill. To this union were born three children:
      Brooks D and Mrs Mayme Fleming both of Rivera, Calif; and Emma C., who died in infancy.

      "During the years her husband lived she received and cared for in her home, at various times and for period ranging from two to fourteen years, seven children other than her own. Five of these were nieces and nephews
      and two were of no relation whatever.

      "After the death of her husband in 1904, she moved to Lena, Ill., and there took into her home her aged father and stepmother and tenderly cared for them until they passed away. In 1915 she closed her home and took a trip to the Northwest to visit her daughter in Montana and other relatives in Washington and Idaho, returning in 1917 and resuming housekeeping for a period of approximately two years. She then went to live with her daughter, Mrs. Fleming, with whom she had made
      her home since. In 1920 she moved with the Flemings to southern California where they established a home near Whittier, and where she passed away June 5, 1938, being 88 years, 3 months and 3 days old.

      "From her childhood she was a devoted member of the Church of the Brethren and loved her Lord with an exceptional intensity and was happiest when she was in a church service.

      "She is survived by her son, Brooks D., and her daughter, Mrs. Mayme Fleming, previously mentioned; also by two brothers, Elder David B Eby of Olympia, Wash., and Elder Levi H Eby of North Manchester, Ind.; one granddaughter, Mrs Hazel Wohlford of Dakota, Ill; and two great-grand-children, besides a host of nieces, nephews and friends.

      "She was preceded in death by her husband who passed on in 1904, her father in 1910, her mother whom she lost when she was but eleven years old, one brother and three sisters.

      "Funeral services were held in the First Brethren church of Whittier, Calif., Elder W A Ogden of Los Angeles officiating.

      Interment was made in Rose Hills Memorial Park, Whittier, Calif. ---Brooks D Yarger, Rivera, Calif."
