DIED.—At her home in this city
Sunday night, Mrs. James Mettlin, after
an illness of several months. She
has never been in good health since
having an attack of the grippe. The
deceased was born in Pennsylvania
July 1st 1835. She was married in
1855 to James Mettlin and they began
housekeeping together near Otsego
this county, in March 1857, where
they had resided until last Fall when
they moved to Oelwein. Their union
was blest with nine children. Three
daughters and four sons are still living
and all are residing in this vicinity
except one daughter who resides in
Wyoming. The funeral services were
held Wednesday forenoon and the remains
were laid to rest in the Otsego
cemetery, near where much of her
life had been passed. There was a
large company of sympathizing friends
in attendance at the funeral services
thus showing esteem and respect for
one who had for many years mingled
with them in their hopes and sorrows.
She was a kind wife and loving mother
and after life's fitful slumber she
sleeps well.Oelwein Register - 28 July 1892
