Name Caroline Dieter Birth 1834 Moore, Northampton Co., Pennsylvania, USA Gender Female Death Jan 1879 Notes - We published last week a brief notice of the death of Mrs. Mathias Kershner and we give this week the following communication: The wife of Mathias Kershner was a most estimable lady and forty-four years of age. She had been failing in health for nearly a year, and during the past four or five weeks endured constant physical suffering, from which death released her on Monday last. She has been a true wife and faithful mother. Her many excellent qualities have gained her many friends, as was shown by the large concourse of people who gathered to pay their last respects to the deceased. Her last words were addressed to her husband and she expired with a smile upon her lips.
She has borne the heat and the burden, The toils and cares of the day. Her hope was anchored on Jesus, She smiled and passed away. The wife, the mother the loved one, Has answered the death angel s call, But she'll live In our hearts, aye live, Till upon us the death warrant shall fall.
