| Text | Mrs. Eliza Talbert passed from time to eternity at the
home of her son C. C. Talbert on West Spring Street Friday morning, March
10, 1911. Mrs. Talbert had been a woman of a remarkably strong constitution and even after she had passed her allotted three score and ten was the equal in strength of most women of fifty. Several months ago her health began to fail rapidly from a stomach trouble from which she could get no permanent relief on account of her advanced age. She had since gradually given away until death relived her suffering. Eliza Talbert was born in Shelby County, Indiana, September 10, 1836. She was married to Alpheus Talbert, December 27, 1855. They moved to Barry County in 1878 and located four miles north of Cassville on Flat Creek where they lived from Mr. Talbert died a number of years ago. The family continued to live there for several years, and the farm still goes by the the Talbert farm. Mrs. Talbert has for some time owned property in Cassville where she has lived since leaving the farm. She leaves two sons, W. R. Talbert of Omaha, Neb., and C. L. Talbert of this city, and three daughters, Mrs. Anna Wilcox of Settle, Wash., Mrs. Hattie Pate of Sunrise, Okla., and Mrs. Corda Lamar of Washburn. In her religious belief she favored the Methodists and her funeral was preached by Rev. J. W. Ennes, at the Christian Church in this city, Sunday afternoon, ant the body laid to rest in Oak Hill Cemetery. Mrs. Talbert was a frank, plain spoken woman and always cheerful disposition, never looking on the dark side of things but meeting all difficulties and hardships when they chanced to come with a smile. Her indomitable will power and jovial and accommodating manner, were strong attributes of her character and made her lasting friends as her years passed by. |
