Died, April 19th, at the residence of Thomas E. Berry, in this city, Mrs. J. S. Berry, mother of the Berry brothers, of lung fever. Mrs. Berry was born Oct. 17th, 1822 in Whitley county, Ky., where she was married and lived until 1878, when she moved with her family to Kansas. She was the mother of ten children, eight of whom live to mourn her loss. She was left a widow while her large family were yet small, but by her energy and ceaseless labor she has raised them to mature manhood and womanhood, all honored and respected citizens in the communities in which they live. Her labors have been faithful and long, bearing her burden without a murmur as only such mothers can. No one in our little city was more ready to assist the poor and sick than she was. During the severe weather of the past winter she went for miles to provide for and nurse the sick. But at last she has been called to come up higher and join her loved ones who have gone before. She died as she lived and submitted without a murmur, without a struggle. Her relatives have the sympathy of the entire community, as many of us know by sorrowful experience what it is to part with a dear parent.
