Decatur County Journal
Thursday, July 29, l9l5

MARGARET LORAIN SCOTT was born August l2,
l909, near Garden Grove, Iowa,
and died July l9, l9l5, aged five years,
eleven months and seven days.
She was the youngest child of JOHN L. and
ETTA MAE SCOTT. She leaves to
mourn her early departure, her father,
mother, two sisters, one brother,
three grandparents, two great grandparents
and a host of relatives and
friends.

She was loved by all who knew her and was of
a kind loving disposition,
always ready to do anything she could for
others. Her sickness was of
three weeks' duration, being a complication
of diseases. Although her
suffering was great, she bore it patiently to
the last.

Funeral services were held Wednesday at 2
p.m. at the Franklin Church,
conducted by A.L. Sears. Interment was made
in the adjoining cemetery.

All weep though not in
bitterness,

Ours are not tears of
gloom,

No thought but those of
tenderness,

Shall glisten 'round her
tomb,

No painful recollections
rise,

Her morn dawns so blest,

And ere a cloud had dimmed
her skies,

Sweet child she was at
rest.
