WALLACE = Alcinda, wife of
James C. Wallace, died on Sunday
evening January 18th, 1894, aged 50
years, months. and Is days. For
several years past Mrs. Wallace had
been afflicted with cancerous af-
lection internally that at last caused
her death.
During her illness she received
the most assiduous attention from
all her friends. Everything that
kind friends and medical skill could
do was done for her. This was large
ly the result of her own life. No
friend, nor any one else for that mat
ter, was ever afflicted and within
her reach but received some kind
ness at her hands. She was truly
good and kind woman. She was
generous and charitable to a fault.
Her life was adorned by many vir-
tues and charitable acts that were
unknown except to herself and the
ones she befriended.
Her death, though not unexpected,
was a great shock, and the news was
passed around with bated breath
and quiet expressions of sorrow.
Mrs. Wallace was a firm and stead
fast friend. Her life was devoted to
her family, her friends and the cause
of humanity Few could be taken
who would be missed more than she.
Mr.. and Mrs. Wallace were mar
ried nearly 33 years ago and to them
six children were born, but two of
whom survive, Mrs. D. I. E. Cas-
teel, of Buckhannon, and Miss Bes-
sic Wallace.
Mrs. Wallace had lived in Nor
gantown all her life. She was
consequently thoroughly known
and greatly appreciated. Many
touching tributes were offered
before and at the funeral. The flo
raj offerings were very beautiful and
the attentions shown by friends were
all the evidence necessary of the es-
TEEN in which she was held.
A vast throng ofpeople assembled
at the Wallace House on Tuesday
afternoon to pay their last tribute of
respect to their deceased friend.
Very impressive services were held
by Revs. Ireland, Buchanan and
Day. The remains were tenderly
deposited in beautiful lot in Oak
Grove Cemetery in manner that
indicated the appropriate words on
the casket "At Rest were literally
true.
Deceased had been a member of
the M. P. Church for many years
and she died in perfect peace, for
some time waiting patiently to wei
come the summons.
The funeral cortege was the lar
gest one ever seen here. it alone
showing the esteem in which the de-
ceased lady was held, and very many
then could not find room.
We shall not soon look upon her
like again.
