Bell Cecil was born March 11, 1875, in Mercer county, Ill. At the age of two years she with her parents, moved to Union county, Iowa, where they lived three years, after which they moved to Ringgold county, where she has lived since.

She was married to Joe Scott Jan. 16, 1907, to which union was born one son, Darrel.

Mrs. Scott united with the Christian church eight years ago, in which she was a good worker up to the time she became ill. Her death was caused by cancer of the stomach, which took her from this world Saturday morning, October 4th, at the age of 44 years, 6 months and 23 days.

Those who remain to mourn her departure are: her husband Joe Scott, Darrel, her seven year old son, her brother, J. R. Cecil, and his daughter, Miss Opal, formerly of Kellerton, now of Mason City, Ill., who were both with her when she passed away; a sister, Mrs. Ida Babcock, of Gazelle, Cal., and many friends.

Funeral services were held from the Christian church Sunday, conducted by Rev. Albert Mueller and the remains were laid to rest in Maple Row cemetery.
