She was married in 1883 and four little children were left to mourn her loss, and a father, mother and two brothers and one sister, but while God has seen fit to call darling Ella away from our embrace, we know that if faithful to the Lord we will be permitted to meet her around God's throne in heaven, and while it is hard to part with our friends we feel assured that our God does all things well. Dear Ella, called father and mother to her bedside and said she was dying. Her mother asked if she was prepared to go. She said everything was bright and clear. She next called her brother Willie. Oh, he is not here. Tell him to meet me in heaven. Then she says tell Johnny to meet me in heaven. Tell Betty, my dear sister, to meet me. She then bid us all good bye and called her little children and asked the blessing of God on them, and called for her dear husband. She became quite for a moment or two and then calling us back said she wasn't going to die. Oh, how, true those words were, for that a Christian never dies. May the blessing of almighty God be with the friends and relatives of the dear sister who is at rest. She was converted in 1882 and the remains were interred in the Concord Cemetery after the funeral sermon preached by Rev. Norman. We the father and mother and husband of the deceased wish to return our thanks to all that assisted us in taking care of the deceased during her sickness. P. and M. Cassville Republican,

Death was by suicide, hung himself, body not found for a few days hence the odd D. O. D. His headstone reads 1872-1923 but he died in 1924. He was married to Daisie Sallee. Son of James Brattin and Miss Bowman, both born MO. E. A.? Bowman of Exeter, MO was the informant on the death certificate. - Wheaton Journal, November 21, 1924 - EXETER CITIZEN COMMITS SUICIDE BY HANGING - Body Found Saturday Night. Act Was Apparently Committed Few Days Earlier - Thomas J. Brattin, a citizen of near Exeter about fifty-three years old, was found last Saturday night suspended from a beam in the Charles Ellston barn west of Exeter where he had hung himself. Mr. Brattin had just recently returned from Nevada where he had spent several months in the sanatorium. He disappeared from the Bowman home where he was staying Thursday afternoon and informed them that he was going to the home of his brother, Lorenza Brattin. When he failed to show up a search was begun which ended Saturday night when the body was found in the Ellston barn by Jess McClure. In hanging himself he had used a hay rope, which was in the loft. He had apparently fastened the noose about his neck, then bound his wrists with wire and then stepped through the loop, thus preventing the use of his hands after he had jumped. According to relatives he had considered suicide a number of times in the past and told them of a few attempts he had made. He is survived by a wife and two children who are living in Monett with relatives. Funeral services were conducted by Rev. Vanzandt Sunday afternoon and burial made in the Concord cemetery. - Another Photo Death Certificate
