Miss She was bonn ia Richmond Va, Febru-
airy 2lst 1914, and was aged fifty nine years,
eleven months and nine days Mrs. Saunders
was one otthe oldest citizens Of Jackson; hav-
ing moved from Virginia IN early life.
She had long been a member of the Presby-
terrain church, and her life and conduct was
entirely eonristent with her profession, and be-
spoke her true christian in every particul lar.
She was the most doating and afectionate Of
mothers, and the kindest and warmest OF
friends The sad news of her deatn will cause
many pang among her nulerous friends,
who knew her but to love and respect her.
We feel assured thas she now enjoys that re-
ward which none but the good receive; that,
together with her sainted children, she now
basks in the light of the glory OF that Saviour
Whom il was her greatest delight to serve,
and in Whose goodness and mercy her faith
was firm and mistaken.
May her bereaved family and friends pro6t
by her bright example aud emulate her chris
