1890OBITUARY
Sarah Draper, was born in Fayette Co., Ohio, June 1, 1831. Was married to T. J. Rhyno August 1, 1848. They moved to Madison Co., Iowa in the year 1850, living in this county 40 years. Was converted at the age of 13, joined the Methodist church and lived a consistent Christian the remainder of her days.
She suffered during the last 12 or 15 months of her life all that her physical powers were able to stand and at times it seemed as though it was impossible for her to bear them any longer. But God's Grace was sufficient for her. Through it all she was enabled to praise the Lord and to direct others about her to the "Lamb of God." She was a kind neighbor, a loving companion and mother, loved by all who knew her. She leaves two --missing--Mrs. R. T. Gilliam and Mrs. Elizabeth Conn to mourn her loss. Out of a family consisting of father and mother and nine children, only two survive. Only a few more days at best and the family circle, will be complete in Heaven.
