The death OF my dear cousin, Is
abelle Blankenship occurred Aug
ust lst, 1901. Her age was 81
years and z months. She was the
wife OF w. X. Blankenship and she
died at her home on Queens creek,
w. Va. She had been sick for six
months and suffered greatly. She
leaves husband and ten children
TO mourn their loss. The funeral
services took place at Big Hurri-
cane Baptist church by Rev. II. A.
Blllups. Never did he speak bet
ter than on this occasion. The
funeral was largely attended. The
romans were taken to the Lakins
graveyard and laid to rest to await
the resurrection morn, when tho
Lord will come in power and glory
TO claim his own. She WAS found
continually holding up the cross OF
Jesus to her family. She called her
children one by one and lectured
them as a loving mother would,
pointing out the Lamb Of God,
She asked husband to kneel by her
bedside and pray for her, which he
at once did. She WAS comforted by
bright evidence from the Heav-
emily Father. She said, 81 can see
the road so bright that leads from
earth TO heaven, and the heavenly
gates open wide. Inside there was
the Savior and thousands OF people,
and, oh such beautiful place"
She is waiting, ever waiting
For the friends she loved best,
And she'll gladly hail their coming
To the mansions Of the blest.
One by one our Savior gathers
Choice flowers rich and rare,
And transplants them in his gar
den;
They will bloom forever there.
