It is Bible proclaimed and most
comforting truth that blessed are the
dead that. die; in the Lord and that
precious In His sight are those who
lay aside. earthly for immortal robes
To no one is the quoted truth more
applicable than when the gentle and
noble matron whose name appears
above passed beyond space and timel
last Saturday morning. It was nea,
the dawning hour down here; to her it
was the Celestial dawn, and the tran
sition from life mortal to life immor:
tai was so easy and the Messenger
SO gentle in severing the bans that
bound her here that the anxious
watchers at her beside hardly knew
when she passed away. Hers. was a
gentle amiable, transformations life a.
bounding in loving ministrations to
her loved ones and in kindly deeds
toward all who came within her reach
and touch and influence. She was
born in Wilson, January IA, 1910, and
was the daughter Of Mr.. and Mrs. Lar
ry D. Farmer, progressive and splendid
pioneer settlers of the village it was
then and who gave aid and impetus
/ in making it the thriving and rapidly
building city it now is. In January
81, 1864, when Elder, then Capt. An
drew Moore, was at home on indefinite
furlough because of serious wound
received in battle under the "South-

five daughters, cultured and accom-

Mrs. G.. w. Price, Mrs. G. w. Harrison,
residents of Whitakers, and Mrs. For
