The Magnolia gazette. [volume] (Magnolia, Miss.) 1872-current, 1899-04-08
MRS. EMMA D. sANDIFER.


Born May 10, 1Se9-Died
March %, 1890.
Transferred From Earth to
Heavenl
In the evening Of the 25th Of
MAJ ch the kind Father, saw fit
to summon the gentle and loving
spirit of Emma ID. Sanditer to
her home in Heaven. Some two
years since she felt the presence
OF an invisible visitor in the room,
and her guardian angel gently
touched her arm and in an audi
BILE voice to her said, como home.
In relating the circumstance 10
me, she remarked nothing will
cure me. but may live some-
thing like two years. My life's
work is not yet finished. Tho
Lord is sparing me only that |
may be an instrument in hia
hand TO call you and my brothers
from the allurements Of earth TO q
realization OF eternity, the cer-
tainty of death, and at death
that the spirit wings its way TO
realms OF eternal bliss, or sinks
down TO the regions CT eyerlast-
ing despair.
Her constant prayer day and
night Was that the Heavenly E'a-
ther might draw US to him. For
the loving Savior says, none
come unto me unless the Father
draw them.
Two years OF intense bodily
pain, two years Of the sublimest
faith and trust that over Wit
messed. | belieyethe Lord grant
ed her prayer ere her body was
consigned TO it's narrow home in
earth q cold bosom.
As the poet, James Buckham,
says:
Tell, oh tell me, Book Of vision, bright
with promise, sweet with PRAYER
snail know the angel faces that are
waiting over thereY
Shall | find father, mother wife and child
will my gentle mother and wife lay
Their dear hand upon my forehead in
the old earth loving way?
Father, keep them as I loved them; or.
II changed to other guise,
May the Heavenly Transformation dawn
but slowly on mine eyes
Let me take them to my bosom, once.
upon that shining shore,
AS saw thom when We parted. in the
love lit days Of yore.
Ill. w. SANDIFER.

NOMINATING CONVENTION To
BE HELD IN JACKSON Au-
GUST a3.
A Cotton Mill to be Established
by CoIored People Personal
and Political Notes.
Correspondence Gazettel
Jackson. April Z, 1899.

The Democratic State Execu-
tive Committee met in Jackson on
Thursday, 9th, and after ses-
sion of six hours, decided that the
state officers to be chosen in No
yember next, should be by state
convention nomination-the state
convention to be in jackson on 23d
August. The committee consid-
cred a written request from Gov.
McLaurin to have candidates for
United States senate nominated
by primary vote, but declined to
so order. The MISUNDERSTANDING
as to who compose the committee,
were all pleasantly settled. The
committee also decided that can
didates for railroad commissioner
shall be nominated and elected as
other state officers, and not by
districts.
The announcement that Hon.
w. ". Sullivan would be can
didate for the long as well as for
the short senatorial term, appears
to have been premature. He has
not authorized anyone to so an
nounce. He is a candidate for
the completion of the term to
which Senator Walthall was elec-
ted, and which he is now filling
by appointment. That term ex-
pires March 3. 1901. He will
hold on until Tuesday, January
16, 1900, when the Legislature
will elect for the remainder Of the
term. And on same day, the
Legislature will choose a senator
for the six years beginning March
4, 1901, and it may select one
