THE LARNED EAGLE-OPTIC, 3 February 1899
Obituary of SARAH S. BENNYWORTH
An Old Resident Passes Away

Mrs. Sarah S. Bennyworth died after a long illness at the home of her daughter, Mrs. D. Bardrick, in this city, on Wednesday afternoon, February 1st, 1899, aged seventy-seven years, seven months and twenty days. Mrs. Bennyworth came to Larned with her husband as one of the “early settlers,” and was the mother of a family of twelve children, only one of which survives her. Mrs. Bennyworth was known by her long residence and many deeds of Christian benevolence, to nearly every man, woman and child of Pawnee county, and although her health had been rapidly declining for some months, the knowledge of her death came as a shock to the community. The funeral services will be held at the Methodist church this Friday morning, at 10:30 o’clock.
