Mrs. Savannah T. Malsbary the beloved wife of EL Malsbary, entered into rest at 6:40 o’clock Sunday morning Nov 29 at her home, 1649 S 23rd Street, Lincoln, Nebraska after an illness of several weeks having been stricken with paralysis. Savannah T. McMillin Malsbary was born Aug 11, 1864 in Tippecanoe County, Indiana where her childhood and youth were spent and where she was married to EL Malsbary Feb 21, 1888. At that time Mr. and Mrs. Malsbary came west and settled on a farm near Fairmont, Nebraska and later in 1904 moved into the city of Fairmont. In 1909 they moved to Lincoln, Nebraska where Mrs. Malsbary gathered about her a large circle of friends who knew her only to love her. Her church membership was with her family in Plymouth Congregational Church where she was much appreciated for her splendid faith and faithfulness. The funeral services for Mrs. Malsbary were held on Dec 1 at her late home at 2:30 p.m. and were conducted by her pastor, Rev. Charles H. Rogers. Scarcely ever was seen a more tender and loving commitment of a body to its Mother Earth as five brothers and a brother-in-law acted as pall bearers. Mrs. Malsbary is survived by her husband, EL Malsbary and her daughter, Fay. She also leaves one sister, Mrs. RD Mahaffie of Holdrage and six brothers, James of Chicago, Robert and LJ of Indianapolis, Ind; Boyden of New Richmond, Indiana; Calvin of Adams, Indiana and Stow of Decatur, Illinois.
