aged about 35-years. fff.sAi ar
She has been a devoted wife and an af-
fectionate mother, Kind and obligine
neighbOr and a jealous christian. She was
a member of the NJ e. Church South, and
was walking an upright christian life She
suffered much and ,lons, but bore it with
christian fontitade. She left FIVE little chill
dren alone in the world without father OIL
mother to nourish and cherish with such
love that no one else can feel, but we fee
thankfulthat thereis one that has promised
10 take care of the orphans, and has ever
proved 10 be true 10 His promises. She liv-
edia lonely widow three long years, till il
pleased the Giver of lif. 10 fake her out of
trouble and trials TO reap the reward Of
The righteous. Then why should we mourn
the loss ola christian when they are taken
out OF life 10 enjoy an eternal life Of peace
and happiness, where tears are Hot known;
neither does sorrow, grief, pain or parting
enter that land of pure delight. But, not
withstanding, as fully realizing the enjoy
ment of our departed sister, we sadly and
mournfully followed her remains to the bu-
rial ground of her husband, infant son and
niece, ii was noted pleasant spot where
her husband often reclined during his Attic.

which is now ever 10 be looked on with SOL
eIiin dread and sad regrets in memory of
those that have gone before.
Z Our sister has gone above,
!. Where all is joy and peace and love.
No more to tread life's thorny way,
To live all through eternal day.
The ch ldren have lost a mother dear,
No more their little hearts TO cheer;
Her tender voice they II hear no more,
For she has passed over ON the ether shore
0 God be with them here below,
And may their spirits with them go,
! And early to Christ their hearts be given
Z, To meet their Ma in realms Of heaven.
