OBITU AIRY.
Death of Lucle Ann Arnold.

It is the painful duty Of tue writer
to announce the death of Mrs. LUCE
ASS ARNOLD, wife Of JonX G. ARNOLD,
Esq, of Jacksonville, in this county.
The deceased was born in the town of
Weston, on The 4th of June. 1886, and
was the daughter of the late john Bal
ley, Esq, aud Mrs. Catherine Bailey
On the 22nd of May. 1854. she was
united 10 marriage TO Mr.. Arnold, BY
Rev. John Talbot; mud she dcportcd
this life on the 18th of January, 1877,
10 the 40th year of her age.
It was tho fortune Of the writer here
Of to hare been acquainted with urs.
Arnold for many years prior to her dc.
cease ; and it eau safely be put upon
record that she was one Of tho noblGst,
bravest and purcst Of women. Endow.
cd with supe rior degree Of iutelli'
gence, she was indeed a help-meet to
her husband and true mother 10 aer
children. Her kindness and hospitality
was proverbial; her why of life modest
and unassuming her devotion to her
husband and children intense, She
suffered severely for some years prior
to her death. from 4 chronic disease
brought on by exposure during the
war, aud which finally put an end to
her life AT the close Of The war, when
death threatened her, she prayed ear
ucstly that she might DO spared ten
years longer for the sake Of her little
children; aud her payer was answered.
At the expiration Of her appointed
time, she passed away quietly as
babe. Through all her pain
full illness she exhibited a degree Of
patience and fortitude which amounted
to heroism ; but she was cheered by the
Star which shone at Bethlehem, and
which has led others safely home, who
were conscious Of q we'll spent life, and
so assurance of glorious immortality. |
In their great affection, the sor-
rowing moth or, husband and children |
have the sincere sympathy of all who
knew them. W.
