me as mnch 81 fering in day as should be

In Memory of Mary F. Met lure.


Mary F. Mcclure was born in
Pierson County, N. c., June 18th,
1923, and moved to this county in
1916. The deceased was a daughter
of Houston H. Phelps and was
married to Harvey B. Mcclure in
1s4S. She made profession of re-
ligion in her 3Oth year, and joined
the M. E. Church at Thompson's
Chapel. She lived a faithful Chris
tian until her death. She was af-
flicted more or less all her life, but
those who were not intimately &C.
quainted with her never knew 1t,
as she never complained, bearing
the ills of this life with patience,
trying to do her whole duty in life's
battle without murmuring, looking
forward to life's end for her reward.
She was the mother of four sons
two living, and two who have
closed their eyes in death; she con.
fidently rejOiced in the expectation
of meeting them on the other
shore. A week before her death
she called them all around her and
had them sing II would not live
always" while she shouted and
told them to meet her in Heaven
She has many friends to mourn her
loss, but none feel the loss so heavi-
ly as the lonely husband, who Is
waiting in the harvest field Of time
for the good husbandman to garner
him with those who have gone he.
fore. May the sunlight of heaven
be his guide to that rest which re.
mains for the people Of God.
She died May 26th, 1886, lacking
a few days of being So years old
After funeral services by Rev. p
H. Henry, she was buried in the
Magnolia Cemetery. Many friends
came to pay the last tribute of re-
spect to an old mother in Israel
and as we looked on the last cold
embraces of the grave it seemed to
say to us:
Shed not tear for me,
Though sorrow fill your breast,
But pause and think in your grief
That my soul is saved and at rest.
o! shed not tear for me.
For the pain Of death 10 past,
And life's long warfare closed at last,
And my soul is saved and st rest.
