Death CLAIMS AN
ESTIMABLE WOMAN
Mrs. E. W. Ford Died Suddenly
Monday-Funeral Services
Conducted tuesday.

Just as she had finished her noon
day meal and was reclining in an
easy chair death came into the hong
of DR.. E. w. Ford, Monday and car
ried away his wise, Mrs. Lizzie Moore
Ford. Fer several months she had
been in bad alth, but recently was
feeling batter than usual and the
shock was thus greater to relatives
and friends. That morning she was
about her work and APPARENTLY feeling
all right.
Let us, If possible, gather UP the
elements of the life of thu departsd
one and weave Of them picture forr
the walls of memory. The book Of
life was open,sd and new name was
wrlttOn thepein by the hand Of love.
To-day the e.erral springtime with
everlasting glories belongs to Mrs.
Ford. Her lifa was a rare jlwel, her
spirit as gold rafined i'm the fire, ready
for heaven. These flowers ara, EN-
blems of our love, but God had bid
den her welcome to that mansion
which He himself has prepared, where
arr the songs of the redasmed.
She ran the journey of her life in for
ty-one years. 1t is a path marlosd
with daeds CT kindness and cheers,
Flowers not thorns, sunshine not shad
ow did she scatter eysrywhere. Truth
was the inspiration of her line and
by kindness she eXemplifiad it's great
worth. Was not her life full of
GOdlinass? And thsre was reason
for this. Upon the bloom of woman
hood she sought the pearl of great
price and made it chief among the
jswels of her hopes. Tho intervening
years have bean full of consistent
fountain OF the maturity Of her char
acter. Fer upon the white canvas OF
her life she drew no uncertain lines
TO b. erased And with the hand of
master SHE delicatly spread the COL
ors of life and made them blend with
promise. Therefore, we mourn, but
not without hope. Through this gloom
there comes back a bright beam OF
sunshine which turns our bears To
jewals of promise. Through the nists
which gather We hear the tumuIt of
the roar as of Niagara, but God
hath set the bow of his promise. Hs
leaves us not alone in the presence
CT the unknown. For the Sabbaths OF
death she now enjoys the Newer end
ing Sabbath of Heaven.
Besides her husband, Mrs. Ford Is
survived by three children, Nancy.
Andy and Edward; father and moth
er, Capt and Mrs. w. II. Moore, and
three brothers, John T. Moore and
E. P. Moore, of Hartford, and w. d.
