- Newspaper Obituary - Thursday, January 21, 1886 Pulaski Democrat - Pulaski, New York - Died - In Franklin, Nebraska, January 3, 1886, Jane L., wife of Rev. E. D. Phillips, aged 55 years. Mrs. Phillips, whose maiden name was Thorp, was a native of Albion, in this county. She was at the age of 24 years, united in marriage to Mr. Phillips, then of Waukegan, Illinois. Since that time with her husband she has lived in this village, at Troy, New York, and Vermont, and at Tecumseh, Nebraska. The fearfully painful disease, inflammatory rheumatism, had racked her frame for a long time with such torture that she welcomed death as a grateful release. Only one child, Mrs. Eli Smith, survives her. With her husband, she lives at Franklin, where Mr. Smith is in business. For the past twenty-eight years the deceased had been a faithful and consistent member of the Baptist church. The many friends of Rev. Phillips and his daughter in this section will truly, sympathize with them and their great affliction.
