Obituary for Grace Martin, Hardin County, Illinois
OBITUARY
Mrs. Grace Martin, of whom we have made mention several times in our items recently, died at her home in Harrisburg last Wednesday, 4 May 1910, after a lingering illness of several months of consumption. She was the oldest child of Isaac N. Oxford and wife (who is now Mrs India Hardesty) and was born 1 Mar. 1889 near Cadiz, in this county. She was married to W. H. Martin of Eldorado, in January 1905 at Elizabethtown, where she then lived. She was the mother of but one child, Robbie, who was born in January 1906, and notwithstanding her very delicate health at the time of and since his birth, he is a fine, healthy looking boy, and an exceedingly bright and intelligent child. She professed religion at a revival meeting held at the Methodist Church at Elizabethtown some four years ago, and joined the Second United Baptist Church of Harrisburg sometimes after she moved there. Of her Christian life we know nothing, but assume that it was consistent and that she gave such time to her religious duties as her delicate health would permit. She had a fair education, was intelligent and had a winning personality, and like her parents made friends of all with she met. She is survived by her husband, one child, one brother, her mother and many other relatives and friends in this county, besides her husband's people who mourn her untimely demise. We know nothing of the closing scenes of her life nor of the obsequies, but feel satisfied from reliable reports a short time prior to her death that she had proper medical treatment and that every attention that loving hands could bestow was given her and that death came only after the disturbed chemistries of failing life could no longer resist.

There are also left to mourn her death, her mother, Mrs Harriet Oxford, of Cave-in-Rock, three sisters, Mrs Byran Rutherford and Mrs Ulys Mason of Cave-in-Rock and Mrs Roy Richgels of Menddota, Wisconsin, and a host of other relatives and friends. Prior to her marriage to Mr. Patton, her home was in her native county near Cave-in-Rock, but at that time they moved to Mendota, Wisconsin and there they have made their home ever since. Mrs. Patton professed faith in Christ early in life and united with the General Baptist church at rock Creek. She was also affilliated with the Royal Neighbors Lode in the town which she made her home. She was of a kind and generous nature, always thinking of others before self and her passing has left in the hearts of her family and friends a vacancy which can never be filled.
