One brother, John Seaman of Seymour, Iowa and a sister, Mrs. Louisa James of Topeka, Kan also survive. Mrs. Warbritton was a true Christian woman thruout her life. She had been a member of the Christian Church here for 60 years. Funeral services will be held from the Christian Church here Thursday morning at 10 in charge of Rev. Headrick.
