    • From Google Books:
      History of the Church of the Brethren in Indiana by Otto Winger:


      Alice King Ebey

      The parents of Sister Ebey are Daniel and Mary Gresso King. Alice was born near Laketon, Indiana, November 11, 1871. The parents, though in moderate circumstances, gave to their children all the advantages of the public schools. Alice did two years of her high school work at North Manchester and completed it at Mt. Morris. She also took a one-year Bible course at Mt. Morris under Professor E. S. Young. When the latter opened up the work at North Manchester she was among the first students. Her interest and ability in Bible work commended her to the management, who selected her as Professor Young's assistant teacher. The year 1899- 1900 found her in the University of Chicago making still larger preparation.

      From early years Alice took great interest in the church and its work. She united at the age of 14. She was one of the teachers in the first Sunday-school organized by the Manchester church. During her school days she was much interested in missions. She was assistant editor of The Bible Student, the monthly publication of Manchester College. Into this she put much missionary spirit. Into the Bible Society and also her classes she put much missionary zeal.

      In India she has been a faithful worker, while at the same time bearing well the responsibilities and sorrows of motherhood. Of three sons and five daughters born to Brother and Sister Ebey, all but two daughters have passed to the home beyond. She is always cheerful, strong in faith and in the love of the church and her Savior.
