OBITUARY
Ann Blakely was born at Rock Island, Ill., November 15, 1848. She was united in marriage with John Wadsworth March 18, 1870, and died at Colorado Springs, Colo., February 6, 1929, aged 80 years 2 months and 21 days. Soon after their marriage Mr. and Mrs. Wadsworth moved from Rock Island to a fram near Grinnell, Ia., where her family was born and reared and where they lived until they moved into the city of Grinnell, that their children might have the school advantages of that city. In 1904 she moved with her husband and two sons, J. H. and R. B. to Mound Valley, Kans., where they lived for a few years, moving from there they located at Colorado Springs, Colo., where she passed away. The remains were taken back to Mound Valley where funeral services were held at the Christian church, conducted by the pastor, Rev. C. C. Seitern at 2 o'clock Tuesday afternoon, February 12. Interment was made in the beautiful Mound Valley cemetery by the side of her husband, who passed away March 2, 1917. The funeral was attended by old neighbors and friends of the Mound Valley vicinity; all her children, except James, who was ill, and all the grandchildren living at Mound Valley and Mr. and Mrs. Heber W. Woodward of Tulsa, Okla. Old familiar hymns, "Abide with Me" "Rock of Ages: and " Jesus, Lover of My Soul," were sung by a Ladies quartet composed of Mrs. Elizabeth Page, Mrs. Lois Hoobler, Mrs. Troy Call and Mrs. Bessie Smirl with Mrs. Edith Sperry at the Piano. Pallbears were A. H. Page, James Lear, John Campbell, Henry Tedstrom,Amos Majors and Frank Steffy. The pastor spoke from the text, "If a man die shall he live again," Job. 14-14. He spoke of fact that he had not known Mrs. Wadsworth, but from relatives and friends he had learned that she was a quiet Christian woman,and had been a member of the Episcopal church since childhood. She loved her home and was never happier than when looking atfer the home and the comforts of her family, neighbors and friends. When the end came without warning, she was ready and awaited the beckoning hands of loved ones gone before. She was the youngest member of her family consisting of a sister and three brothers, all of whom preceded her in death. She is survived by all her cildren: Sarah Inman of Grinnell, Ill.: R. B. Wadsworth of Colorado Springs, Colo., and J. H. Wadsworth, of Mound Valley, Kans.; fourteen grandchildren. She and her husband had enjoyed the companionship of the one son, R. B., until their death, and he has taken care to see that his parents had all the comforts of life during their declining days. He was with his mother at the end. The death of Mrs. Wadsworth marks the passing of another of those pioneer women who helped to build the character and worth of this nation. That character is exemplified in the stalwart good citizenship of her children and grand children, who are now doing their part in the affairs of the communities in which they live. Though she lived to a ripe old age she retained her faculties to the last and will be sadly missed by althe children and especially by the son, R. B.., to whom she has been the companion all these years. To her he told his daily tasks; to her he confided his thoughts and plans. May the high standard she has set for her family continue to guide them until all are joined in the world to come.
