consideration she always showed for
the feelings of others was a marked
feature of her daily life. She made her
home very cheerful and pleasant with
her music and singing, and sad in
deed, is the silence since she went
away. The cause of her death was
quick consumption. Some time before
she spoke of the impossibility of re-
cOvery and of her desire to live for her
family and friends, but signifed her
willingness to depart if such was the
Lords will. She leaves a husband and
a little daughter, two and one-half
years old. She is also survived by her
father, mother, a brother and sister.
She was a member of the Baptist
church, her burial occurring on the
twelfth anniversary of the day of her
baptism. She leaves many sorrowing
friends, to whom the bereaved family
feels very grateful for kind express
sions of love. S. NJ. c."
