Jackson Argus – Week of September 27, 1895
Miss Neva Fletcher

It was sad intelligence indeed that brought to us the death of Miss Neva
Fletcher the only daughter of Mr. R. M. Fletcher.

She had just graduated last June, and was budding into lovely womanhood when the
reaper of death struck her down.   This is a peculiarly sad affliction and often
we cannot understand that wise Providence which removes from our midst such
bright hopes.  But we know that God is too wise to err and all things work
together for them that love him.

Death is the black camel that kneels at every man’s gate and sooner or later we
must all leave the scenes that surround us here.

This young lady was of a beautiful Christian character and were are reminded
that blessed are they who die in the Lord.

Though death has ended her career among the throngs of the earth yet I wot [an old English word for know] 
 it has just begun to bloom in immortal splendor far beyond the pearly gates 
among the dwellers of the New Jerusalem where she has gone to
welcome others as they end this earthly life.   Her spirit has winged its flight
through the portals of that glorious heaven into a fairer region where the
angels of light welcomed her into a blissful immortality.
