ETHEL ELIZABETH CUMMINGS was born near Winamac, Pulaski county, Indiana on
October 30th 1892. She departed this life on Oct 3, of 1911 at the age of
18y11m3d.
When 9, she gave her heart to Jesus during a revival at the Christian Union
church of Cynthiana conducted by the Revs. McKIBBEN and FERNEAU and has ever
since lived a consistent Christian life.
Though never of robust health she was ever thoughtful and kind hearted. Her
gentle manner won for her a host of warm friends. Her kindly disposition and
genial manner endeared her to all with whom she was associated and in days
to come there are many who will miss her familiar form and kindly greetings.
In the home she was a loving and obedient daughter, a gentle and
affectionate sister and in her last sickness was never heart to murmur or
complain, but bore her afflictions with Christian fortitude. If her sickness
had been full of suffering the end was full of peace as breathing more and
more softly, she fell sweetly asleep and her spirit wen to join the loved
ones who had gone before.
About one year ago, Ethel was taken to the hospital and underwent a surgical
operation and for awhile it seemed that she would recover. But as time wore
on it was soon found that her case was beyond human aid. She leaves a
stepfather, a mother, two sisters, and host of young friends to mourn their
loss.
Brief funeral services were conducted at the home by Rev . RABB, after which
the remains were followed to Pisgah by a large number of sympathizing
friends and Rev. BIAS conducted the regular funeral service, after which the
body was laid to rest by the side of her father and little brother.
