Son of man ccmeth.o
B. j. GEORGE.
DIED@n- Eaton, o., on Monday,
March Doth, 1876 of Consumption, Mrs.
JULIA E. CAMPBELL.
She was the daughter of the late Fran
els Hand Rebacca Revell, and was
born near Montgomery, Hamilton Co.,
o., June 2sth, 1910. The family re-
moved to Eaton in 1S43. She was mar
ried Sept. 4th, 1860, ty Rev. H. w. Tay-
or, to William G. Campbell; she Joined
the Presbyterian Church, Eaton, in
1857, al d from the day she profes sed
| Christ, until she died, she adorned her
profession by a godly and consecrated
life.
The disease which finally proved fa-
tai, fastened itself upon her with such
violence, that in Aug, 1874, she, with
her husband and family, journeyed to
the beautiful mountains of Colorado and
locatedin ] ongmont, in the hope CT be-
ing restored to health. This hope was
however never realized, and last sum-
mer she and her family returned home.
Although she was sure death could not
be far distant, such was the strength of
her faith in the ciucified and risen Re-
dcemer. that she was never for one mo-
ment in doubt as to her acceptance with
God and her eternal salvation. Gradu-
ally, day by day, and hour by hour, she
declined, until in answert to prayer, she
received IN easy dismission from earth,
and a blessed entrance into Immortality.
Her funeral services we're held Thurs
day, at2 P. NJ, in the Presbyterian
Church. Rev. A. Meharay, a special
friend, who had ministered to her spir-
itual want in Colorado, delivered a
sweet and touching address, and was
followed by Rev. A. j. Reynolds, who
spoke from the woias, Ps. 1l6. 10
"Preciousi in the sight of the Lord is the
death of his saints" A large congie-
CATION waspresent to testify their sense
of loss II her departure, andsto sympa-
thize with the bereayed relatives.
Mrs. Campbell was a remarkable chris
tan. When In health she was earnest |
and unwearied in every coed wore and
work, at homie, in the Sabbath school,
and in the Church. When that extra
ordinary work, sometimes called the
Temperance Crusade, reached Eaton,
she took an active part, and yet her zeal
was so tempered by wisdom and love,
that as far as known, she made no enc
mics, but won kindness from the hearts
of all. She was never known to be alb
sent from church and prayer meeting
when she could possibly be present, and
sometimes she made great sacrifices of
personal ease to accom- lish her desire.
During her long and severe illness,
her faith failed Iot. She delighted in
the visits and prayers of ministers and
other friends, and cor yersed with cheer
fulness and ihtellisetce uIo on all sub
jects which pertained to the interests of
humanity End of the church of Christ.
In talking with her, such was her
cheerfuiness, pivacity and bright ess,
that n could hardly realize that she
was one who knew she must soon die
and leayel e~rhusband and two children
behind her. Them she committed to
the care of her covenant Gcd. Tlieten-
der 10 e of the wife and mother, strong
though it was. led her to commit her
dear nes to her Savior's care, assured
that lie will provide for them.
She WILDE greatly missed in her
earthly home by n any dear relatives,
in society, by scores of friends in the
Chur,h ofChrist, by all in Eaton, of
every name who love our Lord. We
are comfoited by the thought that she
is now i.appy with her Savior, and that
when he appears, she shall have a share
in the blessed r. surrcction Of the Saints.
