OBITUARY..
"Calied Home"
is D..

Mrs. Jane Shaw Thompson was born
January %, lS42 and died April 20,
1908. She was married to J. II. Thomp-
son November 25, 1880. To this union
was born six children, five girls and
one boy. All survive her but two
girls, who passed over the river Of
Death to await her coming.
Now her task is complete, life is
ended, another soul who, having come
out of great tribulation, has washed
her robes and made them white in the
blood of the Lamb has passed beyond
earth's portals to abide with Christ
forever in the city Of the New Jerusa-
lem. For many years we watched her
patient suffering, and many times her
comforting words would cheer us as
feared the frail barque would be
launched into eternity. The sorrows
of others were hers also, but today the
load ie lifted, the busy hands have
ceased their toll, the heart is eased of
its burden and soul filled with the
consciousness Of duty we'll performed
is basking in the sunshine of God s
love. 1t was towards her family that
her tenderest nature exhibited itself,
and now methinks form like unto the
dear mother is leaning over the balus-
trades Of Heaven to guide us in our
earthly pilgrimage. And while we
stand with blanched faces viewing the
lifeless tenement of clay that answers
back no welcome smile of recognition as
of yore, voice speaks unto our troub-
led hearts as to the apostles of old
why stand ye here?"
She spoke Of her sainted father who
had gone on years before 20 the home
where Jesus calls the faithful to part
no more. He being a minister of the
gospel, had taught her years ago to
have faith in Jesus. There was life
forevermore. A short time before she
left us she called us to her bedside
asking a.! to be good children and TO
our dear father we must all be kind
and when the angels called her she
peacefully passed away, out of this life
of trouble into the blessed peace
where God with His own hands is
waiting ready to take her home, has
carried her over the portals and given
her place on His throne.
