Springs Valley Herald (November 3, 1927) Obituary
Martha Kellams, daughter of John and Elizabeth Golloway, was born March 30th, 1853 in West Virginia and departed this life October 18th, 1927. Aged 74 years, 6 months and 18 days.
She came with her parents to Indiana in 1868 and in 1873 she was united in marriage to William Kellams of French Lick, Indiana. To this union was born nine children, six daughters and three sons. Three daughters and her husband preceded her in death.
Left to mourn their loss are three daughters, Mrs. Rosa Grider near Paoli, Mrs. Maude Merritt of Glidden, Iowa, and Mrs. Lucy Barnett of French Lick and three sons, Walter and Raymond of French Lick and Elwood of Muncie, Indiana; thirty grandchildren, four great-grandchildren, three sisters, Mrs. Serna Hamilton and Mrs. Kizzar Golloway of French Lick and Mrs. Kinder Kellams of English, Indiana and a host of other relatives and friends.
When her husband was taken from her by death 30 years ago leaving her and the children bereft of a husband and father's care, she bravely took over the task of being both father and mother to her children. The way was often dark, dreary and the hardships which confronted her were many, but this brave mother never faltered, but forged ahead and reared her children to be a credit to herself and the community in which they lived.
Her great love and untiring devotion to her children and grandchildren was indeed beautiful to see. Many years ago she gave her heart to her master and united with the United Brethren Church at Sulphur Creek. She remained faithful always and often talked to her friends of the joy of knowing one truly belonged to the Lord. "Aunt Martha," as she was familiarly called was loved and respected by all who knew her. Always with a smile and a cheerful word for every one she went through life doing good scattering sunshine where ever she was. With a loving heart and a ready hand she was ever at the service of her friends.

HODGES, Harry E., OBITUARY
This article is written as the last tribute of respect to Harry E. Hodges. The subject of this sketch was born in Orange county, Ind., Jan. 15th, 1871, and died at the home of his brother, in Bedford, Jan. 6, 1900, aged 28 yrs., 11 mo. and 21 days.
The circumstances which resulted in his death are about as follows: On the 14th of December (last), while returning to Bedford on horse-back leading a cow for the beef shop, the animal took fright at the north end of the bridge on the Limestone road, pulling away from him. The horse that he was riding, had a sore on his back, and the effort which Mr. Hodges made to hold the animal caused the saddle to pinch the sore. The horse began bucking, throwing Harry. He fell to one side of the road, lighting on a rough stone, causing fatal injuries. This happened about noon, and near the old Farmer house. Just at that time Dr. Short came down the hill, going to Limestone. He took charge of the injured man, assisted by Mr. Frank Smith, who came up just at that time.
The Farmer house is occupied by a family by the name of Gowens, who did what they could to help the suffering man, who was taken into their house. Dr. Short returned from Limestone a few hours later, finding him in a dying condition. The poor fellow was as cold as ice, but conscious.
The injuries were internal and from their nature, it was supposed that he would not rally,The whole night was spent to trying to get reaction.
It was an heroic effort to save life. On the next day he was taken to the home of his brother, in Bedford. Drs. Freeland and Duncan were also summoned, who did all they could for him.
The conflict between life and death finally ended after a struggle of 21 days, and Harry fell into that sleep from which no friend on earth could awaken him. He bore his suffering without a word of complaint. He retained his reason till within a few hours of his death. It was thought by many that he stood a chance of getting well but it was a vain hope.
Harry joined the church at Leatherwood in Aug., 1893, at the age of 22. This was a wise choice, choosing between life and death, he took life, building on the rock foundation.
On November 14, 1894, Miss Jennie Teague became his wife. To them was born one child, a son, little Paul, who survives.
Brother Harry was a bright young man of industrious habits, was loved by all who knew him. He was the first one of the family to cross the Dark River. Father, mother, four brothers and five sisters are left to mourn, but Heaven is dearer to you now as one of your number is over there.
It will not be long until some other one of you will join him in that "sweet by and by". Harry will be missed every where, but especially in the family circle, but enough has been said I trust.
Let us remember to be good and kind to all, following in the footsteps of Jesus. Let us be ready when he comes.
The funeral took place at the home of his parents, 4 miles east of Bedford. The services were conducted by Rev. James Small and the writer, after which the remains were buried at Leatherwood. Farewell dear brother. J. Williams
