The death of Emily Caroline Marshall, daughter of Upshear and Nancy Spicer, and the wife of David H. Marshall, occurred at the Marshall residence, four miles east of Springfield, Saturday, Dec. 12, 1891. Mrs. Marshall was born in Cotton Hill township, Sangamon county, Ill., the 13th day of August 1843, and united in the holy bonds of matrimony to David H. Marshall who, with two children, Mary F. and Louisa A., survive, while two, Rolland H. and Nancy A., rest beneath the sod.
Mrs. Marshall had always been identified with Christian work, and was for the last six years a faithful member of the M.E. church, and though an invalid the greater part of her life she bore her afflictions with true Christian fortitude, placing her trust in Him who has at last conquered her pain and is now giving sweet sleep in one of his many mansions above.
The funeral sermon was preached at the residence by the Rev. A.C. Byerly, pastor of the First M.E. church of Springfield, after which the adored remains were followed by a large number of friends and relatives to their last resting place in the Brunk cemetery, Cotton Hill township, Sangamon county, Ill.
