  	AN AGED LADY DIES WENT TO SLEEP TO ENTER THAT LIFE MORE ABUNDANT Has Lived a Consistant (Consistent) Christian Life For Over Seventy Years With Faith That Never Wavered The life of Mrs. Elizabeth L. Drullinger who was called home Friday of last week after having lived a number of weeks at the home of her granddaughter, Mrs. G. H. Shaw, was one that exemplified the life of the Master. It would furnish food for sermons, yes volumns. The writer had the privilege of meeting her and visiting her, learning of her experience, her hope, her faith. For over seventy years she has lived so close to the Master that her life grew in grace day by day, year by year. Her life was not only one of experience but one of real joy. Her's was the kind that liked to pray with folks and have folks pray with her. The real prayer life which alone God honors. In her last days, and rapid decline in health her faith in God grew stronger and stronger until she met Him face to face and her faith ripened into actual experience. She was born in Pickwick County, Ohio, in July 1828 and departed this life at Oberlin, Kansas, January 31, 1919, aged 90 years and 7 months. She has been making her home at Chester Nebraska, until eleven weeks ago when she came to the home of Mr. and Mrs. G. H. Shaw, here the end came. She leaves to mourn her departure ten children and many grandchildren and great grandchildren, her husband and three children having preceded her to the mysteries of the great beyond. She leaves the richest heritage this world has to offer. She left little if any gold and silver but she left that which is far better and richer, a memory of a Christian life and Christian deeds. This is worth more to her heirs than untold millions. The hope in the breast of bereaved ones that they may again meet mother and grandmother where parting will surely be no more.
