OBITUARY
Margaret Jane Dawalt, third daughter of James and Elizabeth Coffman Norris, was born to the family homestead near Norris, Oct. 9, 1856, and quietly and peacefully departed this life February 16, 1916. Her childhood days were spent in the vicinity of her birth, and her school days at the old Day school house, and her participation in the social and church life of her community were pleasant mile stones along the journey of her life.
     At an early age she united with the Christian church at Harristown, afterward transferring her membership to Salem. On March 26,1877, she was united in marriage to Henry C. Dawalt. To this union were born two daughters, Eva and Nora, now the wife of W. N. Short. She leaves two sisters, Mrs. D. V. B. Motsinger and Mrs. J. B. Berkey, two grandchildren, Margaret and Lee Henry Streaker and several more distant relatives.
     Being of an intensely active and energetic disposition her life was one of industry; her hands were never idle and labors many. Her strength of character was apparent to all who knew her and her frank out spoken manner was the joy of her friends. Her stand for the right principle was never in doubt, and her loyalty to herself and her friends was her cardinal virtue. Home, husband, children these were the trinity around which her life revolved and to these trusts she was always faithful and true.
