    “Grandma” Marney Dead
    On last Friday the 25th, another of the old pioneers of Rossville passed away, “Grandma” Marney, as she was so kindly and commonly known, who made her home with her daughter, Mrs. C. B. Stum, just north of Rossville, died at the good old age of eighty-four years. Forty-four years of eighty she spent in Rossville—having moved to Rossville from Missouri in 1866.
    Her funeral was held in the Christian Church, last Sunday afternoon at 2 o'clock, the Rev. John H. Lamb of the Presbyterian Church officiating. A large and sympathetic circle of friends gathered to pay their last tribute. The remains were interred in the Rossville cemetery. The obituary follows:
    Barbara Catherine Horn was born in Kentucky, Oct. 20, 1826. She came to Wisconsin with her parents in 1836; in 1844 she was married to Mr. J. O. Marney. She united with the Baptist Church in 1851. In 1866 she came to Rossville. Here she joined the Christian Chruch. She died at Rossville, Feb. 25, 1910, at a good old age of eighty-four years.
    It will at once be observed that “Grandma” Marney as she was commonly known, was an old settler of this community. She leaves a wide circle of friends to mourn her loss.
    Six church, Jonathan, William and James Marney, Mrs. C. B. Stum, of Rossville, Mrs. Rebecca Coffin of Hoyt, and Mrs. Susan Stuvall of Topeka, survive her.

    The church of which she was a member and the community in which she lived join in extending their deep sympathy to the bereaved ones.
