Sarah J. Hughart Cason - In the death of Sarah J. Cason on the 17th, that estimable lady was relieved from the prolonged siege of illness. Her patient disposition and Christian fortitude enabled her to bear up under her month's agony in a remarkable manner.

In 1860 with her parents, Rev. Campbell and Mary Blair-Hughart, she came to Iowa. Shortly afterward she was married to W. T. Cason and soon after was converted and became a consistant worker of the U. B. church, afterwards the M. E. and remained a Methodist until death. This sincerely mourned lady rests in the St. Charles cemetery.

Obituary

S. J. Hughart, daughter of Rev. Campbell Hughart and wife Mary Hughart, was born in Metcalf county, Kentucky, March 10th, 1837, and died at her home in St. Charles, Iowa, Oct. 17th, 1905. In the fall of 1860, she, with her parents removed to Madison county, Iowa, and was united in marriage to William T. Cason, on the first day of May of the following year. To this union were born six children, three of whom survive her and are now residing in Madison county. The funeral services were held at St. Charles, on Oct. 18th, 1905, by Rev. Rarick, pastor of the M.E. Church, of which the deceased had for years been a member, and the remains were laid to rest in the St. Charles cemetery. The deceased leaves surviving her, two sons, a daughter, one sister and two brothers—Mrs. J. A. Way, of this city, being the daughter, who has been at her side the greater part of the time during the past six weeks.

She will be remembered by those who knew her as a kind-hearted, Christian woman, having implicit faith and confidence in the rewards of a future life, and one who bore her trials and sufferings with a patience and fortitude rarely excelled.
