BASE, Mrs., Obituary

CALLED HOME

Mrs. Base, one of the old time residents of this vicinity died in a hospital at Newton yesterday morning after a lingering illness brought on by a paralytic stroke combined with the ravages of time attendant upon her weight of years, having almost reached the 83rd milestone of life. The remains were brought to Pawnee Rock this morning and were taken to the Mennonite church where funeral services were conducted this afternoon at 1:30 by the Rev. Peter Dirks, after which the remains were laid to rest by the side of her husband in the Pawnee Rock cemetery. Ten children survive this vunerable soul whose life work was done and the God of eternity called her to her everlasting rest. It was her desire that on the sloping hillside, surrounded by the beauty, happiness and contentment of our people should be the eternal abiding place of all that was mortal of her. The relatives have the sympathy of all in their loss and sorrow. - Pawnee Rock Herald. [Barton County Democrat, (Great Bend, Kan.), Friday, February 7, 1913]
