From Story County Watchman March 14, 1878

Mrs. Charity Dunning, widow of the late B. J. Dunning, was found dead in her bed, at the residence of her daughter Mrs. J. C. Mitchell, with whom she had been living, last Sunday morning.

She had retired, the night previous, in her usual health, and the first intimation that her grief stricken family had of the sad occurance, was when some member went to her room in the morning, when it was discovered that her spirit had peacfully taken its flight, apparently without a struggle, in the still hours of the night. The deceased was 73 years of age, an old resident of the place and highly esteemed by large circle of friends.
