some nine miles q little west of south Of
Colby, where she had settled last March.
Although her strength had been in rather
a precarious condition for years, yet she
desired TO come out and be with her
children, who had sought homes in
Thomas county. When she was only Il
years Of age she united with the Christ
ian church and remained in that com
munion until she emigrated with her
husband to Lake county. Ind, and there
being no church of that denomination in
the vicinity where she settled, she united
with the NJ Z. church and has, we are
informed, lived :. CONSTANT christian
life. The minister visited her the day
before she died and found her calm and
quiet, indicating by her actions that she
was leaning upon the Lord for strength
and consultations; and to-day (May 26) he
preached her funeral at the residence of
he afflicted husband, in the presence of a
gOodly number of her recent neighbOrs.
We hope that her aged companion who
is left to toll on alone may find that God
can sustain him with his grace. Also
may her bereaved children be blessed of
