OBITUARY - The Salem Leader or The Salem Democrat; after August 19, 1936:

ELLA PAYNE
     “And at the end of the day comes rest.” Well may these words be said of the long useful life of Ella Payne, which ended at the close of the day, August 19, 1936.
     This life began March 13, 1856, and after a period of more than 80 years of loyal service to all with whom she came in contact, she heard the Master’s call, “Well done, thou good and faithful servant; thou hast been faithful in a few things; I will make thee ruler over many; enter thou into the joy of thy Lord.”
     She was the second child of William and Peninah Bundy Brickey. At the age of two her father died, at which time her mother and little brother, James, aged 4, came to the home of her grandfather and grandmother, Abram and Farabee Bundy who lived on what is now known as the Lemuel Purlee farm.
     In this home of thrifty pioneer stock she grew to womanhood well trained in all household tasks which later were to prove her as an efficient wife and mother.
     The grandfather and grandmother with whom she lived were of a long line of Quaker parentage coming to this county from North Carolina before Indiana became a state.
     Ella being a birthright member of this church, was thoroughly trained in its teachings and principles by which she governed her life and her home.
     Her education began at the log school house at the Quaker meeting house in this community. Later she attended the public schools and the May Academy in Salem. She was always very interested in the training and schooling of her children and was always anxious to give them such advantages as the home could afford. She often told her children of the great influence of one of her teachers, the late Elwood Trueblood, how his splendid advice and training had encouraged and inspired her to live for the highest things in life.
     On October 8, 1875 she was married to Lewis C. Payne, who departed this life December 26, 1929. Soon after their marriage they came to the present home to live and in this home nine children, four sons and five daughters, have grown to manhood and womanhood. These children are: Claude L. of Salem, Maude E. Tatlock of Covington, Tenn., Cassius of East St. Louis, William Herschel, who passed away March 26, 1908; Martha B. Michell, Scottsburg; Leafa M. Baynes, Salem; Lovan (Loran), Kokomo; Mary Lucretia, wife of Ray Newlon, who passed away August 30, 1926, and Dollyne Elizabeth of Salem. There are 17 grandchildren.
     Too much can not be said of this good woman. She was a loyal and devoted wife, an ideal mother, untiring in the training of her children, careful in the details of her home making and a woman of usefulness in this community in which she lived.
     Through a long period of ill health she has bourne her suffering without a murmur, always thinking of the comfort of others instead, and never her own, and as long as ability and strength were left she sought to serve those around her.
     As she advanced in years her countenance radiated the noble inner life, the assured trust and implicit faith she had in her Master.
     Her well lived life is a witness.
     Funeral rites were held at the home at 10:30 o’clock, Friday, by the Rev. W. R. Seat, of Washington, with burial in Crown hill cemetery.

She was buried in August 1936 at Crown Hill Cemetery, Salem, Washington Co., IN.
