OBITUARY..

One friend more gone to Join deaths great ma
ioritv Zone more link in life's chain broken
One warm heart less to regret others when their
turn shall have come.
Mrs. OcrAvIA A. GrERRAHT, wife of John u.
Guerrant, Esq, of Franklin, and daughter Of the
late VIM. Gibson of Montgomery county, Va, de-
parted this life on Monday. October llth, in the
45th year of her age, leaving bereaved husband
and two sons, with large number of friends and
acquaintance. together with many domestics to
whom she was humane and kind, to mourn her
loss Her demise was very sudden. and it seems
but Yesterday that she was filed with so many
generous impulses. But now, alas! she is in her
grave her kind heart is stilled forever. She will
tread the crooked paths of life no more, but be-
meath the sods of her beloved green hifs she sleeps
vet feels MT the calm Sunshine and gen,ctreczes
that play in the green grassland Towering shrubs
above her. In the death of this estimabc lady
and true Christian; society has lost one of its
brightest ornaments, and the Presbyterian church
with which she was united, one of its most con-
sistcnt and influential members. Having obeyed
her Lord and Master earth, she has gone down
to the grave with the hope of hl'ssful immortal
" in heaven where we trust that all who knew
her here, may at LIES close enjoy Der presence
forever. W. M
