MRS. BENJAMIN SLATES
Mrs. Annie R. Slates, wife of B. F. Slates, died at her home on Spring street, Paleton at 11:40 o'clock Satruday night, January 18, 1918, of neuralgia of the heart after an illness of but a few hours duration.
Angelina Robley Slates was a daughter of the late Robert S. and Mary Robley Parker of Union township, and was born in Sinking Valley, Blair County, being at the time of her death, aged 70 years, 1 month, and 12 days. Most of her life was spent with her parents for whom she tenderly cared during their declining years. September 12, 1885, she was united in marriage to Benjamin F. Slates since which time she has lived in Mapleton.
She is survived by her husband, three step-sons, John Slates, of Conemaugh, William Slates, of Altoona, Charles Slates, of Mapleton, and also by three brothers and two sisters; D.E. and Oliver Parker, of Juniata, Mrs. Mary Comstock and Mrs. Laura M. Smith, of Altoona, and A. M. Parker, of Mapleton. She became a member of Mapleton Grange No. 1134, P. of H., at the time of it's institution and for many years has been a treasurer of the organization.
Over fifty years ago, Mrs. Slates, then Miss Parker, united with the United Brethren Class at Mapleton as on of its charter members. Since that time she has been one of the church's most steadfast and tireless workers in all parts of it's activity, especially in the Sunday School in which she has long been the teacher of the primary or beginner's class.
At the Pennsylvania State Sabbath School Convention held at Philadelphia last October Mrs. Slates was among those awarded a medal for fifty-years service as an officer or teacher in the Sabbath school, and upon none was it more worthily bestowed. Her place in church and Sunday school was never vacant without good cause and she had a passion for sonls. She felt her responsibility for those about her and used her influence to win them for her Christ. Not only to win was her aim but she was as diligent to hold. Many persons to-day are active in church work who owe their place to her interest in them. She was an effective and intelligent worker who knew when and where to administer reproof or counsel and her consecrated efforts were rewarded with results. In her death the home, the church, and the community have lost a valuable assistant to the circle in which she moved.
The funeral was held yesterday afternoon. Services were conducted in the U.B. church by her pastor, Rev. H.B. Ritter assisted by Rev. M.C. Piper. Interment was made in Mountain View.
