organic hcart disease, of Mrs. Sarah J.
Anderson, which occurred at tho resi-
Westminster, S. O., on Tuesday morning,
Juno 2S, 1903, at half-past threo O'Clock.

health several months and her death was
not unexpected. She was Miss Blake
10y before hor marriage, and was born in
Iaurons county, $. c., on September 26,
1884. Early in lifo she united herself
With tho Presbyterian church, and for
fiftyJ years she had heen q pious, faithful
and Jealous mombor. Ifor membership
was with the Piedmont church. Tho
church on earth has sustained q great
loss, but the triumphant church has q
glorious gain. To-day many arc tho

from among lis, but it is u sweet and
blessed thought when wo como to think
