Obituary.
FOREMAN - At their home in this village, on Sunday morning, April 9, 1905, Mrs. Lucy FOREMAN, wife of Mr. John FOREMAN, died of cancer at the age of 75 years and 9 days. She was ill for many months, and for the few weeks suffered much; but she endured patiently and with great resignation of spirit.
Born in Cambridgeshire, England, March 31, 1830. She married Mr. FOREMAN in 1848, and they came to America in 1855. Settling in New York, where they remained till some time in the 60's. Then they removed to Van Buren county,
Michigan, and thence to Decatur county, Iowa, in 1877, and have resided here since.
Of seven children born, one died in infancy. The other six are: Mr. Joseph FOREMAN, Mrs. Julia INMAN, Mrs. Mary J. BOOTH, Mrs. Flora MCCOOK, and Mr. George FOREMAN, all of whom were here when their mother died.
After fifty-seven years of companionship one has been taken, and the husband is quite overcome, prostrated with grief, and infirmity of body. They united with the L. D. S. Church in Michigan in 1870, being baptized by Elder Henry C. SMITH. Mrs. FOREMAN was a good woman, and faithful in all her duties and responsibilities.
Funeral services were held at the house at ten o'clock on Tuesday, Elder C. H. JONES in charge and Elder H. A. STEBBINS preaching the sermon. Interment in Rosehill cemetery.
