MRS. NJ. NJ. HUMBERT.
Resolutions on Her Death by W. T. NJ.
Society of Central Church, OF
Which She Was President.

Whereas, our Heavenly Father in
His iiinnte wisdom has taken from
our midst our friend and beloved
president of the Woman's Foreign
Missionary society of Central church,
Newbery, S. c., whose great delight
was to serve our Lord and to labor
in the Masters cause. She was so
noble and true. Her life was one OF
happy unselfsh service, desiring to
bless rather than to be blessed, and
to give rather than to receive. BY
faith and love working Through
gentleness, she showed the beauty OF
the Christian life. Her soul was adorn-
ed with all the spiritual graces and
she walked daily in the light OF Gods
countenanee, and amid the busy cares
of life she found strength and peace
at the feet of Jesus. The real throne
of her power was Foreign Missions.
Therefore, Resolved:
1. That we thank God for such a
life as was hers, and that we treasure
her life's work as a precious legacy.
That all the memories that cluster
around her life may be an inspiration
to all her friends and loved ones, She
being dead, yet speaketh."
2. That we emulate her gentle
graces of character, and her zeal and
enthusiasm for Foreign Missions and
the advancement of the Master S
cause.
8. That we do miss her presence
from her accustomed place, but we
know our loss is her gain, and we
bow in humble submission to Him
that doeth all things we'll, grateful
that the memory we have for her will
remain with US to cheer and to bless.
4. That a COPY of these resolutions
be sent to the Woman's Foreign Mis-
sionary Advocate, to our Southern
Christian Advocate, and to the town
papers for publication and a copy be
inscribed to he'd memory on our min"
ute book.
