Etta Gossett
ETTA, daughter of Jacob and Frances Gossett, of Loydsville, O., departed this life Jan. 21, 1889, in the 17th year of her age. She was taken with Consumption about a year ago, and has been steadily declining ever since. Etta was a bright young girl, beloved by all who knew her. She was a kind and loving daughter and sister and a universal favorite among her companions. Two years ago, under the ministry of the Rev. J. R. Hissom, she was converted and united with the M.E. Church at Loydsville, and has since lived an earnest, consistent Christian life. Before her death she called her friends to hr bedside and asked them to meet her in heaven. Her sister had preceded her to the heavenly home about four years and of her she said, 'Carrie is waitiiing for me at the gate.' She complained of being 'so tired,' she asked that her Saviour might take her away and give her rest. Funeral services were held at her home in the presence of a large number of her friends and neighbors. She was buried in the M. E. cemetery at Morristown, where her remains await the resurrection of the just. Father, mother, and two brothers are left to mourn her loss.
