OBITUARY
Ann Eliza McGee, daughter of Judge Hugh McGee, of Pulaski County, Illinois was born near Grandchain on April 2, 1850. Upon the return from the Union Army of James A.L. Evers, she was united in marriage with him September 7, 1865. To that union were born nine children, six sons and three daughters. The eldest son, Johnie, was drowned at 16 years of age. Hugh and Agnes died in infancy and there yet remains, Albert W. and James O. of Grandchain, Mrs. Cynthia Lippert of Karnak, Mrs. Jay D. Ferguson of Salem, Ill., Luther L. Evers of Metropolis and Hubert H. who is now with the colors somewhere in France. From the death of her husband in 1910, Mrs. Evers failed rapidly but her death was caused by pneumonia. She passed from this life to life eternal December 31, 1918. She had lived a consistent member of the Salem Methodist Episcopal church for fifty-three years and never was known to fail to testify to her Master's goodness and mercy any time or place the opportunity was given. Truly our church has lost a "Mother in Zion" but our loss is Heaven's gain and as she often prayed; "Not my will but Thine, O Lord be done."
