To them were born 3 daughters and two sons, who survive her. She united with the ME Church at Potato Creek some 8 years ago, since which time she tried to live the life of a Christian. She was an obedient daughter, a kind sister, a loving wife and mother. She leaves mother, brother, husband, children and a host of friends to mourn. Her funeral was held Sunday at Campbell's Chapel conducted by Rev. JS Crowder, who delivered a good talk to a large and sympathetic congregation, after which the body was laid to rest in Rice Cemetery, while her spirit has returned to God who gave it, and where no chilling winds or poisonous breath, can reach that healthful shore, sickness or sorrow, pain or death are feared or felt no more. -- kbz
