Mrs. Winfield S. Talbott


Mrs. Winfield S. Talbott, only daughter of Daniel and Mary J. Carroll, was born January 1, 1858, and departed this life December 18, 1916, being almost 59 years of age. She was the mother of three children, two of whom have preceeded her to the great beyond.

She leaves to mourn her death, an only daughter, Mrs. D.E. Hibs, and two brothers, John T., and Henry S. Carroll, and five grandchildren, also a host of friends. With the exception of a few months, she has lived her life on her farm near Hendrysburg. Since the death of her husband five years ago, she has lived alone with her Bible and domestic cares. She was a devoted mother and a lover of home. Her Bible was her greatest solace, she never failing to read it each and every day. She joined the church when a child and lived ever after, close to its teachings. Death had no terror for her. She closed her eyes as a child and fell asleep. Methink I can hear her Father say as her feet touched the cold and chilly waters, "Fear not I am with thee." A Friend.
