Wednesday, March 1, 1916MARY HELEN WALLACE
Mary Helen Parsons was born at Corning, Iowa, Sept. 27, 1872, and died at her home in Macksburg, Feb. 16, 1916, aged 43 years, 4 months and 20 days.
She was converted at the age of fifteen years and united with the Baptist church, of which she was a member at the time of her death.
She was united in marriage to Dr. C. M. Wallace at New Market, Iowa, Feb. 27, 1890. To this union were born two children: L. Guy of this place and Eva Wallace Pindell of Chicago, Ill.
She was a devoted wife and mother and lived to bless and help others. She had been in failing health for about a year and everything had been done for her that loving hands could do to restore her health, but without avail.
She leaves to mourn her loss, a husband, two children, one grandchild and an aged father, besides a host of sympathizing friends.
