DEATH OF MRS. JANE G. MATHIS
This Good Woman Died On Tuesday
Evening After Lingering Illness
Lived all Exemplary Life.
Union Times, Nov. |.

NIIoH iucS, NOV. l.
On Tuesday evening. at 7.50
O'Clock, Mrs. Jane Carolina Mathis
passed away at the residence Of her
son, and Only child, Mr.. Jno. II.
Mathis, on Church street. Her death,
though not unexpected, was a great
SORROW to her friends and loved ones.
She was one of Unions very aged
people. and though she had reached
an advanced age, she was active IL
body up to Il few months preceding
her death, and her mind did not fail
her until death was upon her.
Mrs. Mathis was born April 26,
1923. in Cabarru Co., y. G., and was
Il daughter of Andrew and Sarah llar-
ris. On Nov. 8, 1872 she was married
i'll Ncwberry county TO Mr.. Wilough-
~ Mathis. of Portsmouth. Va.
I'm early life she gave herself to
Gods service and through her long
life she never faltered in her stead
fast faith in Jesus Christ. Her great
est pleasure was the doing of good
works. She was possessed of II noble,
self-sacrifcing disposition. and to
make others happy was her great joy.
She originally joined the Methodist
church. and for thirty years WAS Il
faithful member of that church. But,
from early womanhood she became Il
believer in immersion as the baptism
taught by Christ. and this finally led
her to join the BaBpistS. She was,
however, very liberal in her judy
mcnt Of otncrs, and always had l., her
heart warm place for thc Meth
odist church. Thirty odd years ago
she united with the First Baptist
church at Ncwberry. Later, upon
moving to Union to live with her SON s
family. she moved her letter to the
First Baptist church, Union.
Her husband died in Florida where
he had moved with his family Ills
death was on tht 25th anniversary Of
their marriage. The husbands 5 death
occurred also ON the Sth anniversary
of the birth of their only child She
was left practically pcnnilcss and be-

child and provide The necessities Of

The last twelve months her hcalE

she sank peacefully into sleep, pass

Ion" aAd useful life Of this modly wo-
man is a rich heritage left her friends
and loved ones. Her hands were ever
ready to minister TO those in need Of
her help, and in her days Of sickness
and pain kind friends and loved ones
did nodi fail to minister to her.
"Shc rests from her iabors.
