Died, at Christiansburg, Va, December Doth,
1869, Mrs. ELLA LEcKEY WADE, wife of w. Wade,
in the 9th year of her age.
Thus IN the closing days of the year, passed away
gentle, loving and loyabe spirit. Retiring and re-
tcent, almost to a fault, she was known to but few
But those few knew that within that little body there
beat soul of sterling worth, endowed with high and
noble qualities ,Her disposition was afectonate
and sweet She was full of love for everybody
unkind words rarely passed her lips But above
ALL she was a Christian. An humble, timid-but
we believe, sincere believer in the blood of Jesus
She died in the full hopes of glorious resurrection
Perhaps she will be missed by only a few-but
with them 1t Will be no common loss Our loss
however, is her eternal gain. Our love for hel
should dry our eyes, and still our throbbing hearts
as we remember that she is now enjoying all the
gories and the rest promised to the people of God
She leaves a husband and two infant children tC
mourn her loss. B.
