Vernon Courier, Sept 16, 1887, Page 1
DIED
Mrs. SARAH ANN MIDDLETON, wife of Mr. JAMES MIDDLETON, died at her home at 
Vernon, Ala., September 12, 1887.
	Mrs. MIDDLETON was a daughter of JOHN STEWART, deceased, of Fayette 
County, Ala. was born Dec. 1, 1825. She embraced the Christian religion and 
was baptized by Rev. H. W. MIDDLETON in the year 1847. Since that time she has 
lived a consistent member of the Missionary Baptist Church proving by her 
daily walk and life the glorious realities of the faith she professed. Though 
her sickness was long and painful she bore it patiently, asserting her 
confidence in the crucified and risen Savior who was with her as she passed 
through the deep waters. In her domestic life she was all gentleness and 
devotion, a loving wife, and affectionate mother, a true friend, and a kind 
obliging neighbor. The deepest sympathy is felt for the bereaved husband and 
children of the deceased. May the relatives and numerous friends, in this sad 
hour of bitterness, seek relief from Him whom she served so long and loved so 
well, who alone can furnish the balm to heal the wounded heart.
	“Weep not when ye tell the story of the dead 
	“’Tis a sun-beam joined the glory Overheard!”
