"Let the record be made of the men and things of to-day, lest they pass out of memory to-morrow and are lost. Then perpetuate them not upon wood or stone that crumble to dust, but upon paper, chronicled in picture and in words that endure forever." --Kirkland


Morris Herald & Advertiser

October 3, 1874


We are sorry to be obliged to chronicle the death of one of the old residents of Morris, Mrs. Hanna A. Underhill, who departed this life September 25th, 1874, in her 71st year.  Mrs. U. was born in Pennsylvania, April 30th, 1803. She removed to Ohio while still a child and from there to Illinois. While on a visit to Ottawa last winter, she contracted a cold which led to a long and painful illness.  She bore her sufferings with great patience and Christian fortitude, and died beloved by all who knew her.  Her remains were taken to Ottawa for interment.
