OBITUARY
At eleven o'clock on Sunday night, Oct. 30th, Mrs. Lucinda Harlan, relict of Judge Justin Harlan, quietly and peacefully crossed the "Dark River". She had been in feeble health for some time but did not take to her bed till Saturday, Oct. 22nd. From that time on she was conscious but little of the time, and despite all that love and skill could do, her system, worn and wearied by the tolls and burdens of four-score years, gradually grew weaker till the end came. Mrs. Harlan was the daughter of David and Sarah Hogue, and was born in the old fort at Vincennes, Oct. 4, 1812, her father being one of the soldiers of the garrison, and her mother, with many other women of the surrounding country, being there for safety. Her parents moved to Union Prairie in 1814 and here she grew up to womanhood and was married to Mr. Harlan March 4, 1832. the young couple began housekeeping in Darwin, then the county seat. When the court house was changed to Marshall the family moved here and this has ever since been her home. Nine children were the fruits of this marriage; all but one who died in infancy, being still living and with one exception making their homes in Marshall. Her husband died in 1879 and since then the aged mother has been cared for by her children with tender solicitude.
Mrs. Harlan had long been a faithful and consistent member of the Presbyterian church and pursued her way through life with an unfaltering faith in the merciful love of her Redeemer.
The funeral took place today at 10 .a.m. from the family residence, Rev. C. F. Wilson in charge. A large concourse of friends and relatives followed the remains to their last resting place beside those of her husband in the Marshall Cemetery.
