Death of Mrs. Hatfield
Miss Permelia Frazier Anderson was born in Shelby Co. Mo., May 10, 1844.
Her people were Presbyterians and she was baptized in that church at the
age of ten when in quite young she went to live with an aunt, her mother
having died, and she attended the Baptist church. At the age of seventeen
she was married to Mr. M. Hatfield at Edina, Mo., Aug. 21, 1861. Nine
children were born to this union, eight of whom are living. They are -
Hugh M. of Boise, Idaho, Ben O. of Josephine, Mont., J.E. of Sheridan;
Rockey, of Red Lodge, Mont; Mrs. Mary Daly of Big Timber, Mont., Mrs. Ida
Hammond of Twin Bridges; Mrs. Lizzie McIntyre of Stevensville, Mont., and
Mrs. Maud Siprell of Sheridan. With the exception of Hugh and Mrs.
McInt.... who were unable? to come, the children were with their mother
during her last moments on earth.
Besides her husband and children, she leaves one sister. Mrs. Elizabeth
poor of Edina, MO. and one brother, John M. Anderson of Adair county,
Mo., Mr. Anderson visited in Sheridan three years ago.
Mrs. Hatfield crossed the plains with her husband and two little sons,
the trip occupying four months and ten days, and notwithstanding the
Indians and other incidents of a long move in an emigrant wagon, landed
in Alder Gulch in 1864....Shorty after they moved to what is now
Sheridan, where John e. Hatfield was born in 1865 being the first child
born in the town.
Sister Hatfield was a woman of strong character. One of the places to
test a true Christian is in the home; she was never too weary to care for
those of her household. She was an excellent housekeeper. .....to her
often reading it when time permitted.
Her life was so much wrapped up in her children that her one thought
through life was that she might live to "make her husband and children
happy."
After a few days of sickness with pneumonia, she passed to her reward at
her home on the ranch Oct. 27, 1905. The sorrowing family have the
sympathy of the entire community in their bereavement.
The funeral service was concluded in the M.E. church Oct. 29. The test
selected by the pastor was from her own bible marked: Peter I, 3-4.
Beautiful music was rendered by the choir. The funeral was very largely
attended and the body was laid to rest in the Sheridan cemetery.
"To patient faith the prize is sure,
And all that to the end endure."
J.A. Badcon, Pastor
