In Memoriam.

Died, at noon on Thursday, the 14th of June
1881, at the residence of her mother. near
Churchville, Augusta county, Va, Miss KATE
HANGER, aged, AZ years, 6 months, and % days.
The death of this excellent Christian lady de-
serves more than passing notice. 1t would
be dlfhcult to say too much in her praise or
Tatner' we should say, In praise of the Grace of
God as exemplifed in her life and Christian
character. She united with Union Presbv
terrain Church, when young, and friends and
family bear her witness that she never turned
aside from the faith, nor from the corresponding
purity and devotion of Christian.
AS tree planted by the waters. as the lilv of
the valley, as the rose of Sharon-so her life dis
covered the grandeur and glory of the great sal
Vatlon, the meek, unobtrusive demeanor of the
child OF God, the beauty and fragrance of self
sacrifice through all her weary days.
Her light was better than the light. That

Neither the cares of life, nor sickness, nor the
ness OF spirit, the cheerful demeanor of this
loving, trusting disciple of Jesus. Through
many weary years of painful illness she &C.
guessed with sweet submission to the will Of a
Heavenly Father, whom she trusted to the ut
termost. Her Affections were ever viewed bv
her In the light of Christening imposed by her

Sorrow stricken ones, looking through Won
tears, you miss the light Of the household but
the memory Of the departed will illumine ali
your life on earth. When the soul is darkened
with the gloom of doubt of the great salvation,
the thought Of such life, and such a death
while flooding the heart with the tenderness of
the past, will afford sufficient and loving proof
OF the power Of Jesus to save. She passed ON
before, that she might lure you on that vonr
path might ever lead heavenward.

In the midst of life we are in death. A few

all that medical skill could suggest was attempt

Mary gave her heart to Jesus and united with
the people of God. She loved the Church. de

member of the Sabbath school, When informed
that she could not recover, she said love
Jesus dearly, can trust in Him, and am not
afraid to go to him." Ola bright, winning and
amiable disposition, she endeared herself to all
who knew her. She will be greatly missed in
the home now so desolate without her. and in
the community SO shocked by her death. A
