years been great sufferer of complication Of
diseases which baffled all medical science, under
which she bore up without murmer, claiming as

willing to leave this world OF pain and sorrow, her
answer was: Yes, Glory be to God, have home
in Heaven" and calling her friends to her bedside
she earnestly beseached them to meet her there.
A few hours before the messenger of death entered
her chamber, her power Of speech had left her and
took It's flight to warn the loved ones gone before
of the coming ofa daughter and sister, and often
her hands raised in the attitude of prayer and
beckoning to those that she would soon join.
A peaceful smile settled upon her countenance, her
hands folded to her breast, and her soul took its
flight to that Land from whence 1t came.
| Hattie had for a number of years been faithful
member of the United Brethren Church and died in
the full belief of a redeeming love. In her death
the church loses a true and devout christian, a
mother loving daughter two brothers and two
sisters kind and loving sister. May she rest in
peace
| While the birds are singing in the wildwood,
| While the myrtle and the Ivy are in bloom,
| It was there we laid our sister Hattie
| It was there we laid her In her tomb.
