Malvinah Poole was born in Fayette County, Pa. March 30, 1869 and died in Seward, Nebr. July 22, 1921. When a child she moved to West Virginia, and later on Westward. September 4, 1912 she was united in marriage to J. B. Wait of Seward. Those who survive are the husband J. B. Wait; a son, Charles Abern of Birmingham, Washington, a grandson, Charles Wayne Abern, and two sisters, Mrs. Mattie Rearick and Mrs. Margaret White of Pittsburg, Pa. The deceased has been in failing health for a number of years, and for the last two years she has suffered more or less severely. About two weeks ago, she was taken to Esther hospital in Lincoln, but it was found that nothing in medical or surgical skill could do her failing body any real good, and on Tuesday she returned to her home, where on Friday evening she passed to the spirit world. Mrs. Wait for many years was a Christian and in her earlier life she gave her time and talents to the work of the Lord, and doubtless there will be precious gems in her crown. Funeral services were held at the home on South 2nd Street Sunday afternoon by the Rev. William Boyers of the Methodist Church. Miss Margaret Miller and Mrs. Chester Slonecker sang appropriate hymns. Burial was in the North cemetery. Obit from the Independent Democrat, Seward, Nebraska July 28, 1921
