Mrs. Mary Reamer Hunter, wife of Mr..
Anderson Hunter, died at her home near
Townville, February 13. 1895, after long
and wearieome illness, surrounded by her
aged husband, four children-one son and
three daughters-aud q number Of sympa.
thizing friends. She was the eldest child
of David Simpson, Esq, who was, years
ago. an honored snd faithful ruling elder
of Roberto Presbyterian Church, and sis.
ter Of Mr.. Joseph B. Simpson, Of Auder-
son, he being the youngest child of the
family, and the only one now living
In 1851 she and Mr.. Hunter werl nar-
ried, and to the day Of her death they .Ved
most happily together. Shortly after she
died, he said, in tears, to friend, that he
never knew her to be angry in all of her
married life. A very remarkable testi-
mony, indeed. At an early age she joined
Roberts Church, and her whole after life
was consecrated to Gods service. There
is not the semblance Of doubt as to her
loving her divine Master and His Chu ch
and His worship While she had strength
and the use Of herself, through cod and
heat sunshine and rain, she would go to
Gods house to attend his holy worship,
and she always realized that i! was good
to be there.
She abounded In doing good, visiting
and waiting on the sick, helping the poor.
counsellpg the young, yea proving herself
to be "a friend in need," which is "a friend
indeed" 1t was pleasant to hear many of
her reighbors say, when standing Or sitting
around her bedside or freside, during the
last days of her illness, "She was 80 good
to me In time of my'trouble;" 90, how
we will miss her." and after she died one,
pointing to her coffin. said, "There Is u
good woman gone home to glory"
Then she was model wife and mother,
tender, affectionate and faithful. Only
few days before she died, Mr.. II. was quite
unwell for three or four days, and, though
she was entirely helpless, yet she Was
deeply solicitous in regard to him, and
wanted to help him, as was her loving
duty in former days Her influence over
her children was great, and all because
they loved her, and had confidence in her
in every way; and, like her, they too are
walking in the ways Of the Lord. Now
they mourn because of her absence, but
not as those who have no hope-thetrs in
regard to her is we'll founded hope.
