Death and Burial of Much Beloved
Lady.

Lady.
RIDGE, S. c., May IL, III.
Our usually quiet little village was
thrown into astate of sadness on Wednes-
day last, by the announcement that Mrs.
Sallie Kennerly, the wife of our much
esteemed friend, Jno. Kennerly, Esq,
was no more. SUCH an announcement
was not totally unexpected, from the tacS
of Mrs. Kennerly's long illness. She
leaves a devoted husband, three chill
dren (the youngest an infant daughter of
two months) and many relatives and
friends to mourn her untimely depart
,,re. She was daughter of Col. Charles
Smith, Of Cokesbury, S. c., and lady
of many virtues and rare attainments.
She clung to the}hope Of her restoration
to health and her family with that tenac-
ity so characteristic of youth, until the
morning preceding the evening of her
demise, at which time, being convinced
of her fast approaching dissolution, she
exhibited quiet and calm resignation
whose beauty was only equaled by Its
sublimity. She was thoughtful OF all
her earthly associations even IN the hour
OF death, calling to her bedside, husband,
relatives and friends, and bidding them
all an affectionate farewell thanking at
LliC SdllIO tlilC OCi AAAOhS4S -
little ac s of Kindness towards her during
life. She even commissioned friends
present to bid friends absent (incntion-
ing names) good by; and oxhorted all to
live so as to meet her in the realms OF
eternal bliss. She bore her long illness
with christian fortitude, and without
murnnir, having no fears Of death, and
exhibiting strong and living faith in
the atoning blood of her Redeemer.
Such death as hers is Illustrative of the
omnipotence of the grace of God.
The funeral was preached from Grace
Church by the Rev. Mr.. Leard, OF your
village, and was largely. attended. The
stores were all closed. and business OF.
all kinds among thewhites WIS suspend
ed; and many coming in from the coun-
try, formed 'aprocessioni that was quite
imposing. Indeed, such one as. would
impress a stranger that one had died
who hada deep hold upon the affections
of frieiids and neighbors. Her body
was buried in the Watson burying ground
with the usual ceremonies of the Meth
odist Church, to which she belonged.
