VD1tunry.
On the 10th of October,.in ..ie pres
ent year l1906), Mrs, A. M. Randall,
of Shepherdstown w. Va, passed
away fromisher earthly heme 10 be
crowned in glory in the kingde M
above.
Gods will, not ours 5, be done,''
Mrs. Randall had very large circle
OF friends and acquaintance in Jeiier-
son and Berkeley Counties, who mourn
the loss OF sincere friend, ana join n
sympathy TO the lbereaved family in
their irreparable loss. she was one Of
the best known, most highly Respect
ed and best beloved residents Of this
county, where she aud her venerat lie
husband, James f. Randall, who is
new in his s3rd year, had long resided,
until about two years ago. Mr.. and
Mrs. Randall had been married As years
We may fully appreciate the tender
kindness Of a devoted wife and mother
while she is yet with those she loves,
but the loss sustained by husband and
children in the taking away from US
of the most loving and affecliopate Of
wives ana mothers, cannot be fully re-
allied until she has passed from among
MS, and will be more deeply felt day by
day, and we miss her heartfelt words
of comfort and her encouraging pres
ence.
Mrs. Randal's whole life was one Of
affection, sacrifice and devotion. Love
and duty were her guiding stars, which
she followed consistently in her rela-
tions to her family and the world. One
of he greatest pleasures in her noble
life was to promote the happi.ess of
others, trait that rendered her not
Only blessing to her own family, but
q constant comfort and benefit to eth
ers. The kindly ministrations Of her
christian nature were not confined
alone to her home, but were cheerfully
extended to those who were in need.
Whenever there was trouble to be
alleviated, sympathy to be shown,
gentle word said, or helping hand ex
tended, she was ever ready in such
work Of charity and mercy. While she
had been a sufferer for some years,
her passing away was unexpected.
She was in the 10th yearof her age.
Her christian fortitude was shown in
her patience under suffering. In her
abiding faith in God and her absolute
resignation to his will, she was ever
borne up BY the knowledge that he
doeth all things well would never leave
or forsake those who put their trust in
Him.
One Of the most precious legacies she
has left her children il her teaching OF
Christian forbcarance. her noble ex-
ample in doing good to others and that
spirit Of faith which is embodied in the
great truths Of Christianity, that
we walk closer with God In carrying
these lessons with us in our daily lives.
The only comfort in this great affiic-
ton is. the knowledge that ovr loss is
her eternal gain, and that by exempIi-
flying her christian life, we shall ali be
brought together with her in the king
dom of Christ, in realization of the
teachings Of her faith. Mrs. Randall
had been consistent follower Of her
Saviour since early childhood.
She was member of the M. e
Church, South, since its organization,
always taking deep interest in the ac-
tive work Of her church. She was
member Of Marvin Chapel, in the
Shepherdstow District.
