During this time of severe affliction, he patiently bore his pain...............Mr. Rust was born in the present home of his sister, Mrs. Perfect. His entire earthly life was spent in Berlin Township. He united with the Peachblow Church in 1869, and was a constant and faithful member for 52 years. he attended the church services as long as his health would permit, and followed the admonition of Paul that the Lord loves a cheerful giver. He had a kind and sunny disposition and was always ready to lend a helping hand to those in need. His cheerful smile will be missed by those who loved him and by those who thought of him as Uncle Charlie. "

Mr. and Mr. Charles Rust wish to express their thanks and gratitude to their many friends, some of them schoolmates of fifty years ago, for their kind remembrances on their golden wedding day which occurred on Friday, Oct. 7th. Although the health of Mr. and Mrs. Rust would not permit a gathering in the good old fashioned way, they both being in poor health the past two years. Someone had started the kind thought of a post card shower resulting in 70 cards and letters. All the way from Mississippi came a lovely bouquet of yellow roses just picked and a nice long letter telling about their home. The flowers and fruit of the country from Mr. and Mrs. William Hults which was greatly enjoyed by Mr. and Mrs. Rust. Also a card from Mr. and Mrs. Hugh Hults of Wisconsin. Mrs Fannie Perfect thought the day would not be perfect without a wedding cake, so she presented them one. While the relatives presented them with a purse of near fifty dollars which was thankfully received. Along toward evening, while they were yet rejoicing over the beautiful friendship, and the tokens of esteem that lay before them, and in God's goodness in giving them such pleasure, who should appear, but Mrs. Rust's sister, Mrs. Thomas Griffith of West Berlin. She with her husband came with a well filled basket of all things good to eat which meant a wedding supper. So the day closed full of happy memories to be looked back upon and rejoice in the days to come."                                    ______________________________________________________________________

The deceased was born in Licking County, Jan. 13, 1855, and had lived almost all her life on the present home farm. She was a member of the Peachblow United Brethren Church. Funeral services will be held at the Peachblow Church Monday afternoon at 1:30 o'clock with Rev. N.E. Rush officiating. Burial will be made in Cheshire Cemetery."                                                                  From her obituary........................"Mary Ellen, second daughter of George and Elizabeth (Green) Stover, was born in Licking County Ohio, January 13, 1855. When one year of age, she came to Delaware County with her parents, who settled on the farm where they lived the balance of their lives. This farm surrounded the land on which the church stands, the land having been given by Mr. Stover, and largely through his efforts and the help of his wife the house was erected. On October 5, 1871, she was married to Charles Rust and for more than 51 years they lived on the farm in Berlin Township, where they began life together. Soon after their marriage, they united with the Peachblow United Brethren Church, and were faithful members until called from this life.
"Aunt" Ellen took a great interest in the work of the church and was particularly active in the Sunday School, where she almost always had a class, many of the men and women here today in their youth having been in one of her classes, and can recall her gentle manner, and thorough Christian character.
She was the last member of her father's family to answer the call of the "Grim Reaper" and at her death was the oldest member of the church. She died on September 9, 1932, aged 77 years, 7 months, and 26 days. Her husband preceded her on July 30, 1922. They left a son, Vinton D. Rust, and a daughter, Mrs. Will McNett, and seven grandchildren who will always remember her as a faithful wife and loving mother, ever willing to do all she could to make the burdens of life more easy, and the pathway just a little smoother."
                                                      Thelma writes.................... "Grandma was of small frame, and a frail women. She made the best tasting pies and raisin cookies imaginable. In her younger years, she boarded the train to visit Uncle Vinton in Chicago. She was a strong woman in her youth, driving the horse and buggy to visit, shop in Lewis Center, or to attend church. She was known as Ellen to her friends and neighbors; a soft spoken, caring woman." Louise also remembered her fondly; calling her loving and kind; she said that Grandma Rust would send her to the mailbox to get the mail. She would sometimes bring back the "Religions Telescope" , a Christian magazine that she would study from......and " she would also rap you with it if necessary to keep you in line".
