Moore - Ella
Source: Crawfordsville Weekly Journal Friday, 8 March 1901
Ella Moore, wife of R. E. Moore, died at her home one and a half miles southeast of Darlington last Thursday night at 9:30 o’clock, after a long and painful illness. The funeral was conducted at the Friends’ Church last Saturday evening at 1:30, when she was laid to rest in Center Grove Cemetery by her little babe who had preceded her only five weeks to the better land.
Her purity of character and honesty of purpose were traits of character worthy of emulation by all. She leaves behind her to mourn her untimely death a husband, three brothers, and three sisters, together with a host of friends.
Everything that skilled physicians and loving hands could do was done but to no avail. It seems strange that such a beautiful young life should be cut so short, but the giver of all good doeth all things well, and we must say, “Thy will, not mine, be done.” The family has the sympathy of the entire community in this their great sorrow, and we would say to the loving kind sister who tended her so faithfully and kindly during her illness, going wherever she was called, to lean on Him who gave you the blessed little sister that you may join her in the great beyond. – thanks so much to “S” for all her great obit work on this site
