She had been ailing for a year or more from a disease of a cancerous nature, and recently under went an operation, which failed to re lieve her of the malady. For forty years Mr and Mrs Ar mour were residents of this preoinot, on the home farm four miles south west of Dakota City, and were among our most respected and well to-do fam ilies. A husband and eight children, five sons ajid three daughters, eleven grandchildren, three sisters, and two brothers, besides a large circle of minor relatives and friends are left to mourn her departure from this world. The sons are Will Armour, a bnnkrr of Allen, Nebr; Lee Armour, of Shoshone, Colo; Henry O Armour, of Sioux City; Dr George Armour, of Spencer, Nebr, and Marvin Armour, of Sioux City, The daughters are Mrs Robert O Ililenian and Mrs Theodore McGlashan, who reside in this precinct, and Mrs Ed Selby, of Sioux City. About three years ago Mr and Mrs Armour retired from active farm life and removed to Sioux City, where they could better enjoy life in their old age, for like many others who have made a success and aocumuated a competency by tilling the soil it was next to impos sible to sit down at their farm home and see others do all the work, hence the farm was leased and they took np their resideno in town. Coming to the county with her par ents, James Garner and wife, in 1856, Mrs Armour underwent many of the hardships and vicissitudes of life which befel the pioneers of Dakota connty; she also saw a vast wilderness transformed into a thriving, wealthy and picturesque con. m unity, where scores of neighbors and friends, with whom she had mingled all these years, will cherish the memory of throne de parted. Eliza J Garner, was born in Wayne county, III, February, 10th, 1844 Died in Sioux Oity,xIowa, March 19th, 1909, aged 65 years, 1 month and 9 days. In company with her family she moved to Nebraska in the year 1856. On March the 3rd, 18C3 she was united in marriage to Wm Armour. To this union eight children were born, five sons and three daughters, all of whom have lived to manhood and womanhood and establish their own homes. The subject cf this sketch was one of the rarest of Christian mothers. Her church life covers practically all of the history of the Salem Lutheran church of Dakota county. She al ways held as most sacred all of the interests of this congregation, with whom she worked so long and so har moniously. To the time of her death Mrs Ar mour was a member of the WH&F M society of her communion. She dearly loved to do what she could in that work. All her associates held her in the highest esteem. Her fervent earnest prayers have been benedictions in many of the monthly home-circle meetings of the society. In her home there abounded a most gracious hospitality. I think it well within the bounds of truth to Bay Mrs Armour influenced thousands of people for good during her long and useful life. She was not only mother to her own family whom she loved with ten- derest solicitude, but she found time to be kind to her neighbors and friends. To tbe sick she ministered with hearty sympathy. In pioneer days when hard and sad conditions arose all found in her a trne helper and friend. Her soul to Him who Rave tt, rose; 0xi led it to a sweet repose, Its glorious heavenly rvHt! And though this mother's sun hus set. Her light shall linger round us yet, Bright, iiultent, holy, blest. The funeral servioss weie held at the Trinity Lutheran churoh in Sioux City, Sunday afternoon afternoon at 2;30, conducted by Rev W 8 Ober holtzer, of this place, assisted by Rev David R Huber. The remains were in- tered in Logan Park cemetery.
