  	"Arapahoe Public Mirror" (Arapahoe, Furnas Co., NE), 23 Oct 1913: Mrs. Thomas G. Carter, an old and respected pioneer woman of Frontier county, died at her home in Arapahoe last Thursday morning, after a long and painful illness, cancer being the cause of death. She had lived in Arapahoe about three years, retiring from the farm with her husband to spend her last years in comfort, but her hopes were short lived, as she has been an invalid ever since coming to town, and her trouble dates even before that time. Funeral services were held from the Arapahoe Methodist church Saturday afternoon at 2 o'clock, in the presence of nearly seventy immediate relatives and a following of sorrowing friends who overran the capacity of the commodious church. The profusion of flowers attested the esteem in which deceased was held in the community. Rev. Carr, of Lexington, a former pastor of Mrs. Carter, conducted the services, assisted by Rev. Pinckney. A special choir sang appropriate hymns. The singers were, Mrs. Mae Carter, Mrs. M. A. Clark, Chas. M. Evans and Clyde Prime, accompanied by Miss Madge Disbrow at the organ. The body was borne to the grave by loving and tender hands, the six sons acting as pall bearers. They are John, Charles, Frank, William, Edward and Fred. The ladies of Lincoln Circle, auxiliary to the G. A. R., rendered an impressive ritualistic service at Arapahoe cemetery where the remains were interred. Mary Moody was born in Belton, England, Aug. 31, 1849. Died Oct. 16, 1913. Age 64 years, 1 month, 16 days. She came to America with her parents at the age of three years and settled at Plainfield, Ills. A few years later they moved to Iroquois county, Ills., where she lived until she was married to Thomas G. Carter, Feb. 8, 1871. To this union was born ten children, seven sons and three daughters, all living near Arapahoe except one son, George, who died nine years ago. The spring of 1884, they moved to Frontier county, Nebr., where they have lived until two years ago when they moved to Arapahoe. She had been a faithful and consistent member of the M. E. church at Gosper about seventeen years, also a member of Grand Army Circle. She was a kind and loving mother, and will be missed by all who knew her. She leaves to mourn her loss, a husband, nine children all at her bedside at the time of her death, two sisters, three brothers and 21 grand-children. Two brothers, Wm. Moody, Elwood, Nebr., and George Moody, Chibanse (sic), Ills., two sisters, Mrs. K. C. Found, of Clifton, Ills., and Mrs. Hannah Leggott, of Bradley, Ill., being present at the funeral.
