Cornelia Adeline Mckay MCLAUGHLIN

On the 26th day of FEBRUARY, 1914, at
her home in Cheraw, S. c., Cornelia
Adeline, daughter of Sarah Adeline
James and Neil Mckay, and wife OF
Murdoch McRae McLauahiin, fell OIL
sleep. Hers was a rare nature. A
gifted and brilliant woman, she was
beautiful generosity, rich in loving
oppressed and sorrowing, the friend
impulses and deeds, the friends of the
loyal and friendship she held.
Above all, the love and fear of God
was in her heart, with faith unques-
tioning, unwavering.
She was a devoted wife and mother.
Before the childish heart could under
stand, she faithfully taought the Word
of God to her children, and much OF
it's precious truth was memorized at
the mothers knee. With her noble
husband she made home that stood
for righteousness and the highest
ideals. Memory is stepped in frag-
rance at the reccollection of this home
where God was honored, His day kept,
and it's Christian influence and sweet
gracious hospitality has been far-rea-
ching. To the children of his home
is left the priceless heritage of fair
and unssullied name of Godloving
and God-fearing ancestry, and 1t is
theirs to strive to follow the example
so faithfully lived before them by their
godly parents whose lives showed the
religion of Jesus Christ.
After only two months of separation
here, the wife was called to join the
beloved husband whose side she had
walked in love and trust so many
years. The dear master showed his
signial favar in sparing them all pain
and suffering Not even the Sadness
df farewell" was xheirs Instantly
they were ushered into the presence
of Him whom they had glorificd on the
earth and whom they were so ready
to meet.
They are together in THE land OF
pure delight" where His servants
shall serve Him, where they behold the
glory of the Father and worship tn"
King in His beauty.
