column will be found the last unpub-

concisely her views of home, and
wifely duties.
AS teacher she was noted for the
power to interest and hold close her
pupils, uplifting as well as educating
them; as a friend, one who COM
pletely lost all thought of self in the
needs of those within the circle of her
friendship; as neighbor, thoughtful
and helpful. Our community has met
with grievous loss in her death, and
her family been bereaved beyond
measure.
Her last illness began on March
22nd, terminating in her death at 10
p. m. April 3Oth. She suffered but
little pain at any time, gradually
growing weaker, though neverlosing
consciousness until within a few
hours of her death. The funeral SER
vices were held at the home at Old
Town, at 4 p. M, Friday, May 1st, her
pastor Rev j. G. Hastings speaking
very feelinglY of the great service she
had been to him in his struggles to
upbuild the church in this section.
Sections from her favorite hymns
were sung by Mrs Alexander and Miss
