Bio
"Mrs. C.C. Rather The death of this good woman, which occurred recently at the family residence on Beal Street, came as a sad bereavement to children relatives and friends. She and her husband, the late C.C. Rather, came to this county many years ago. For a long time they lived in Nolan Valley, but ten or twelve years ago they moved to Belton. The family was of the sturdy pioneer stock which did so much to redeem this country and were responsible for many of the richest blessings that today are ours for the taking. They were noted for energy, honesty, hospitality and genuine kindness. The world will never behold a finer race of people. The Rev. A. F. Cunningham conducted the funeral services, and spoke words of comfort and reassurance to the bereaved who sat about the coffin. A large number of sympathizing friends accompanied the remains to North Belton Cemetery, where interment took place. We tender sincere condolences to all bereaved by the death of this noble woman."
