Mrs. Henry K. Weaver

Miss Florence White was born in Oswego, New York, October 12th, 1854. At an early age she came to Iowa. She was united in marriage to Byron Hamilton. To this union were born five children, George A. Hamilton, Dora M. Hamilton, Charley C. Hamilton, Dicy Edna and Phoebe M. Hamilton.

Mrs. Hamilton was later married to Henry K. Weaver. To them were born three children: Alice B. Kelley, Toot V. Weaver, and Oley M. Weaver. At the time of her death Mrs. Weaver was sixty-nine years, ten months and ten days of age.

Six of her children are living to mourn her death: George A. Hamilton, of Omaha; Dora M. Lohman, of Des Moines; Charley C. Hamilton of Highland, Kansas; Mrs. A. E. Kelley, Charlton, Iowa; Toot V. Weaver, of Patterson and Ollie M. Weaver of Fort Dodge, Iowa.

Mrs. Weaver was a patient sufferer with the incurable disease that caused her death. All that sympathy and care could do for her was done to make her days comfortable. As she neared the end of her life on earth she desired to know more of the-life that is eternal and was open minded and hearted to the things of the life that never dies.
