They settled In Douglass county, remaining there until the death of her parents in 1875, both dying within seven weeks, which necessarily divided the family.

Some five years ago that dreaded disease, cancer, set in and after long months of suffering and doing all possible for her recovery without avail she finally became resigned to her fate and longed and prayed for the end.

Mrs. Jewett was converted and joined the M. E. church at High Prairie, when she was about 13 years of age and lived a faithful member of the same for several years. In her physical condition she was not able to attend the services as much as she desired.

She died June 3, 1908, 50 years, 5 months and 21 days. The remains were brought to Olathe Friday morning for burial. Funeral services were conducted from the Methodist church by Rev. R. V. Maioney oi Rosedaie, assisted by Rev. O. M. Bowman. The Rebeckah lodge had charge of the services at the grave.
