Obituary.
Mrs. Anna L. Steinberg--nee Miss Anna L. Jackson--was born at Manteno, Illinois, February 8th, 1861. On January 15th, 1884, she was married to William H. Steinberg, at Petone, Illinois. In 1885 she came to Sioux county with her husband and settled on a farm just northwest of Hull. In May, 1907, she, with her family moved to Salem, Oregon. Seven children--two boys and five girls--came to brighten their home, namely: Myra, Fred, Harry, Amy, Orrie, Barbara and Fannie. Myra died in 1898 and Harry in January of this year--Mrs. Steinberg following them to their heavenly home on the 29th of February, 1908.

She was a Christian having joined the Presbyterian church before leaving Illinois. Mrs. Steinberg was a wife and mother in the whole sense of the word--her home, husband and children being the one thot of her life, and will be sorely missed by them. The ways of providence is past understanding, and in this instance--as in many others--the one most needed is the one to be first taken. Nevertheless let us bow our heads in submission to His will and say "Thy will, O, Lord, and not mine be done.
