Mrs. Martha Stever, of this place, died at the Jefferson Hospital, Philadelphia, Wednesday evening, November 30, 1892, at 8:15 o'clock. The sad intelligence was received at Mapleton the following morning and caused a gloom to be cast over the community. They remains were brought to Maplton on Friday morning and Sunday afternoon were interred in the Mountain View Cemetary. Services, conducted by Rev. C.L. Benscoter, were held in the M.E. church at 12 o'clock, and so great was the number of those who wished to join in the paying of a last tribute to her that the church would not accomodate them.
Mrs. Stever was the daughter of the late Jacob Miller, of Hare's valley and was born on the farm in Hare's Valley April 8, 1838. She was married to Israel Stever January 2, 1966. To this union four children -three sons and one daughter - were born. The first born son, Sidney Grant, died in Mapleton June 18, 1869, and was buried at Cassville. In the spring of 1870 they went to Kansas and soon after located at Fairfield, Iowa, where Mr. Stever died November 2, 1875. The next spring Mrs. Stever returned with her three small children to Mapleton.
