MRS. Z.F. ANDERSON.
**Handwritten: 1913

Fannie M. Hanshaw was born November 3, 1878, and grew to womanhood in the same home, north of Douds, where she passed from this life to the world beyond, April 13, 1913, in the 35th year of her age. She was married to Z.F. Anderson, May 26, 1897, and to them were born three children, a son, Veryl, and two daughters Vada and Helen. Husband, children, mother and two sisters are left to mourn their loss. The deceased never confessed her "faith in Christ" publicly, but showed her love for her Maker in manifesting a sweet and loving disposition. There go from us a loving wife, a sacrificing mother, a faithful daughter and a loving sister. Our Heavenly Father has seen fit to remove this dear one from us, but we know "He doeth all things well." She goes to meet a father, two brothers and two sisters, who have preceded her to that Better Land. Funeral services were conducted by Rev. F.C. Behner Tuesday afternoon in the Lutheran church, a large, sympathizing congregation being present, and interment was in Zion cemetery.

"Sleep on, dear mother,
And take thy rest;
God called thee home,
He thought it best."
