Mrs. Frank Sage of Winterset passed from this life at the home of her daughter, Mrs. H. B. Harden, near Corning, Jan. 27th, at the age of 70 years, 4 months and 27 days. Funeral services were held Jan. 29th at 3 p.m. in the Methodist Episcopal church in Corning, conducted by Rev. E. S. Menoher and the body was laid to rest in Walnut Grove cemetery.

Mrs. Sage, formerly Miss Anna M. Reynolds, daughter of Richard S. and Julia Reynolds was born Aug. 30, 1854 in Warrenville, Ill., where she grew to womanhood and was married to Frank Sage, Feb. 14, 1875. Later Mr. and Mrs. Sage located in Adams county, Iowa, where they remained until March 1, 1901, when they moved to Winterset, and from there they went to Lorimor, where they spent three years, returning to Winterset in 1914, which has since been the family home.

Mrs. Sage was troubled with a cancerous growth, and had been ill for some time, gradually failing until the weakened heart ceased to beat. She passed away very quietly, falling asleep without apparent pain when the end came.

Mrs. Sage was converted at 12 years of age and united with the Christian Union church in Madison county. She was a splendid lady with a large circle of friends.

Mr. and Mrs. Sage went to Corning to spend Thanksgiving and Mrs. Sage was not able to return to her home. She had hoped she might be spared to celebrate with her husband their golden wedding anniversary on Feb. 14th. Mrs. Sage was a patient lady, looking to the comfort and happiness of others and left a large circle of friends, who with her loved ones, mourn her loss.

Besides her husband, Mrs. Sage leaves the following children: Mrs. Edith Gillet of Afton; Mrs. Nina Rogers of Morgan, Minn.; Mrs. Minnie Robinson of Winterset; Mrs. Ella Harden of Corning; Ray of Indianola and Harry of Winterset; also two sisters, Mrs. Ella M.
