Martha A. Jaye
   Died at her home near Mexia, Monroe county, Ala., on the 6th of May, 1903. 
Sister Martha A. Jaye in the 62nd year of her age. Sister Jaye was born in Pine
Apple, Ala., and was there married to W. W. Dailey, who died at Buena Vista, 
Ala., 1847. Thirteen years after she was again happily married to A. J. Jaye, 
of Buena Vista, who preceded her to the spirit world three years ago. Sister 
Jaye was an intense sufferer during her last years. A malignant cancer made 
its appearance on her face and was the cause of the very keenest suffering.
  In her sickness, she was very patient. Her pastor visited just a few days 
before death relieved her, and found her perfectly resigned to her God and 
Master. Early in life she joined the Missionary Baptist church, in whose 
fellowship she delighted and in whose ordinances she walked. She leaves behind 
her seven sons and two daughters besides a host of relatives and friends to 
mourn her loss. We can but recommend the stricken family to him who doeth all 
things well.
"Servant of God well done.
Rest from the loved employ;
The battle fought the victory won.
Enter thy Master’s Joy.
Soldier of Christ well done
Praise be the new employ;
And while eternal ages run.
Rest in the Savior’s Joy."
