HATFIELD, MISS IDA (SRGP 18584)
The many friends of Miss Ida Hatfield were saddened by the news of her
death, which occurred Wednesday evening, July 4th, 1923, aged nearly 54 years.
Every effort had been made to relieve the suffering and restore to health, but
of no avail and the Angel of Death wafted her spirit to those realms above.
A brave, gentle, self-sacrificing spirit has gone. Dutiful and dependable
to the utmost limit, she was a joy and comfort in her home and a warm true
friend of all who knew her intimately. It seems hard that death should
take one so dear and helpful in the community, but sustained by an unshaken
faith in the greatness of God’s kingdom we can lift our tear-wet eyes to the One
above, believing that Ida’s pure and helpful life here with us, was but a
beginning, and that on another shore that dear life still goes on. Those
who knew her best were surely bettered by their contact with one in whom loyalty
and devotion to duty were essential qualities. Loving life, she saw in all
things whether pleasant or hard to bear, the workings of God’s plan for our
betterment. In earlier life she embraced the religion of Jesus, uniting
with the Jobs Corners Baptist Church, to which she was a faithful and helpful
member until a few years ago, having moved to Rutland, called for a letter and
united with the Rutland Baptist church, to which she was loyal and true to every
department of the church. She leaves to mourn their loss Mr. and Mrs.
Carlos White, with whom she had lived for many years, together with two sisters,
Mrs. Hattie Cummings, of Bentley Creek, and Mrs. Frank Williams, of Rutland; one
brother, William Hatfield, of Tioga, besides many other relatives and friends.
Her funeral was largely attended Saturday, July 7th, at two o’clock, her pastor,
Orey Crippen, officiating; burial in Daggett cemetery. The many beautiful
flowers attested the love and esteem for the departed.

were born, five of whom survive. They are Truman D. Comfort of Trenton,

besides her husband and children she also leaves to mourn, her father, David
Bartlett, of Tioga; one sister, Mrs. Emma Kennedy of Mansfield; two brothers,

grandchildren. Mrs. Comfort was a kind wife, a loving mother and a good
neighbor. The funeral was held from the M.E. church in Tioga Sunday at one

officiating. Interment was in the family plot in Evergreen Cemetery at

(Mrs. Ernest Waltz) of Mansfield. She is also survived by her husband and

years her entire life was spent on the farm where she died. She enjoyed a

some deed of kindness. She was a devout member of the Free Methodist
Church at Paointer Run and was a true Christian. All who were intimately

influence will live on. Funeral services were held at the Free Methodist

apprehended, until the last few days. George Lay, one of the most widely
known and popular men in Sullivan township and Sylvania, died at his home in
Sylvania after a short illness of influenza. The care of his father, the
late James Lay, took heavily from Mr. Lay’s vitality, and outside of Sylvania,
few of his friends realized his serious condition until the end came. He
was 65 years of age, was born in Sullivan township, and had lived in Sylvania
for many years. His widow, Hannah Smith Lay survives, together with a

CRIPPEN, MRS. ADA A. REDFIELD (SRGP 3738)
Mrs. Ada A. Crippen died at her home in Roseville July 13, 1923, after a
long illness of rheumatism. All that medical skill could offer, with the
best of care from those near and dear to her were given to her during the three
years of intense suffering which confined her to her bed, but all this failed to
break the bands of the disease and she bore her affliction with patience as only
one who receives strength from the Great Burden Bearer can. She was born
August 20, 1854, in Delmar, the daughter of Augustus and Aurilla Doud Redfield.
Her early life was spent at the home of her parents and her education from the
school near her home. While yet young she took up her work as a teacher
and taught school until Dec. 17, 1879, when she was united in marriage to Osmer
Crippen, a young farmer of sterling qualities, who died some years ago,
leaving his companion with the children who had been born into their home during
their happy years of married life which had been spent in Rutland. The
children, three boys and one daughter, all live in Roseville—Eugene, Augustus,
Orey and Florence at home. One brother, Charles C. Redfield, survives.
Mrs. Crippen was a member of the Baptist Church and was always ready to help in
its behalf as long as her health permitted. In the passing away of this
member the Community has lost a friend and neighbor and all who knew her join in
giving sympathy to the family in their hour of sorrow. The funeral
services were held at the family home Monday, July 16, Rev. Barrett, her former
pastor, officiated. The floral offerings, the number in attendance, the
autos for the accommodation of all, spoke of the esteem in which the deceased
was held. Appropriate music was rendered by a trio composed of Mr. and
Mrs. Fred Wilcox and Ella Mae Brace. Burial in the family plot in
Roseville cemetery.

age. He leaves a wife and three children, Joseph and Sidney of Willowdale,
