We regret to note the death of Mrs, Samuel
Iyree, who bowed SO submisslvely to the I'M
welcome summons of death on the morning of
The 24th OF July, at her home in Millen, Ga
She was the mother of Mrs. !. S. Tyree of this
city, and of four other children. whose
memories will ever be fresh with the
beautiful teachings of their mother. Her
life was indeed one that can be classed among
the perfect, for at all times and under all cir
cumsta ncess her reverence for God was alike
She seemed DESTROYS OF living just long enough
to make monuments OF her children, and justly
her. to bid them lifes adieu, 1T is finished it is
finished" Notwithstanding the steady and
cpatlnued progress OF her complicated disease
hood was that of a Virginian, in which State
she leaves host of friends to mourn the loss of
one so dearly beloved. Our coincidence goes to
her bereaved husband who is almost alone with
his grief and his God, for the evening hours of
his life has closed the petals of his dearest fiower
which can only be opened by the early morn
deWS OF Heaven.
