OBITUARY

S. N. Noble, of Braman was born in Medcalf county, Ky., July 4, 1864 and came to Sumner county, Kans., at the age of 10 years.
He was married to Josie Stratton, Nov., 18, 1884. To this union were born 9 children, 5 boys and 4 girls. He came from Sumner county to Oklahoma with the first settlers and lived there until his death. He was converted and baptized Aug. 7, 1884, at South Haven, Kans., and lived a true Christian life until the death angel came Dec. 5, 1908 at Wichita, Kans.
Before he left his home for Wichita he told his wife to meet him in heaven. If he never met her again on earth. When the sad news came to him that he would have to die, he called his oldest son to him and told him to take good care of his precious family, that he was going home to meet his Savior. He said he was glad that he had lived the life he had for it gave him comfort to die. In his dying prayer he said all was well with his soul.
He was a kind and loving husband and father, and all who knew him, loved him. He leaves a wife, nine children, and aged mother, three brothers, and two sisters to mourn his loss. What earth has lost heaven has gained.
