HUNT- Catherine Hunt, wife of Hicks Hunt, died Jan. 30, 1886.
She was the daughter of Franklin and Anna Burroughs. She was an affectionate daughter, a loving mother and a kind neighbor, and her departure has left a vacancy that never can be filled
I was permitted to be with her during her illness, and she never complained of her sickness-all was well.
I believe her last and dying words were "Lord take me home."
She leaves an aged father, one sister and brother, a loving husband and two little children to mourn their loss; but they mourn not as those who have no hope, for "blessed are the dead who die in the Lord;" all that a kind husband and friends could do was done; but alas death claimed her, and on the eve., of January 30th, she left this tenement of clay and went to join those who are redeemed and dwell forever in the Paradise of God; and now
Farewell, 'tis hard to give thee up;
But may we prosper by her Godly deed;
And meet her in the sweet bye and bye.
Jennie B. Eden.
