| Dixon, Mrs. Mary Ann | Mrs. Mary Ann Dixon, mother of Percival and Arthur Dixon of this city died at the home of her son Percival at 8:30
a. m. Tuesday, Dec. 5, 1911, after a week's illness of bronchial pnewumonia. Mrs. Dixon was born in England on
May 16, 1833, and resided in London until the summer of 1893, when she came to Rolla with Arthur and kept house
for the two sons until Percival was married. Since then she has made her home with Mr. and Mrs. P. Dixon and will
be greatly missed by every member of the family. In December of 1909 in company with Arthur Dixon she made a visit
to London. Whole visiting relatives, she met with a very serious injury by falling down a flight of stairs. One
of the bones of her face was broken and other injuries received. The physicians in attendance pronounced the injuries
fatal, but in a month she was able to be up and immediately sailed for her home at Rolla. Mrs. Dixon was a woman
of great strength of character. Her had was ever open to the needy and she was a constant visitor at the bedside
of the sick. She literally went about doing good. Possessed of a cheerful disposition, she always saw the bright
side of things and scattered sunshine wherever she went. A few hours before she was taken ill, she was engaged
in repairing a garment, and reluctantly laid it aside until she should "feel better." She did not know
that her beautiful earthly life was swiftly drawing to a close, and that the summons to come up higher was on its
way. Her work was fully done and she folded her hands to rest. "He giveth his beloved sleep." Funeral services were held Thursday afternoon at St. John's Episcopal church of which she was a menber. The services were conducted by Rev. W. Salt deacon of the Episcopal church assisted by Rev. R. J. Hicks pastor of the Methodist church of this city. The capel was filled with friends who came to pay their respects to teh dead and show their sympathy for the striken relatives. |
