Dated December 6, 1907

Mrs. Sarah Andrews passed away at her home in Ireton Tuesday morning at
11 o'clock. This makes twice within the past few months that the
messenger of death entered the McDougall family. The aged mother, Mrs.
Anna McDougall, having reached more than the allotted time, slipped away
from the shores of time and now the daughter answers to the call and "is
not, for God took her." Her husband preceded her to the other shore,
leaving two sons, namely, Luke and Alonzo, of Ireton, to mourn her
going, besides three brothers, Alexander, John and Jim McDougall and
Mrs. Edwards, of Ireton, her sister. The summons was not unexpected for
the good lady struggled with disease for the last year. She went to the
coast for her health a few weeks this fall, but being exhausted found no
relief and returned and since made her home in Ireton. She was a lady up
in the fifties and up to the mother's death lived on the homestead and
cared for her mother. The funeral services were held in Ireton Thursday
and interment was made at LeMars the same day, where the remains were
laid to rest. May God in his tender mercy bless the bereaved ones and
bring them safely to her.

~Note: Per the 1900 Federal Census, Iowa, Plymouth County, Grant Twp, Sarah Andrews was born June 1851, age 48, and widowed.
