! JANE GLAsCoCK.
Communicated
Died, at her home in Hillsboro, Ohio
March 2sth, 1890, Miss Jane Glascoek.
With the death of this estimable lady
passes away from this community the
last of her generation of the Glascock
name.
Her father, the late Travis Glascock
will be remembered as gentleman oil
the old regime, who, with others of his
family and their families, came from
Virginia at an early day and are associ-
ated with the history of the county.
Miss Glascock was conscientious
Christian, a life long adherent to the M.
E. Church. She was devoted to its
special economy. In the prayer meet.
ing, class meeting and love feast she
was a witnessing professor. She was a
| teacher in the Sunday school for many
years; of the preachers class she was
for long time treasurer; also of the
Woman's Foreign Missionary Society, OF
which she was corporate member.
OF simple tastes and healthful habits
her declining years were singularly free
from their usual limitations OF age. A
short illness, mitigated as best it might
be by kindly ministries, preceded her
entrance into "the rest that remaineth
for the people OF God."
