The Cherokee Advance (Canton, GA)   15 April 1887 p 3
In Menoriam (sic) 
Mrs. Elizabeth S. Fuller, relict of Solomon Fuller, died at the residence of her 
sister, Mrs. J. M. Hutson, last Friday night, and her remains were interred in 
the town cemetery on Saturday afternoon. Rev. C. M.McClure, by request from her 
the day before she died, preached her funeral at the Methodist church, of which 
church she has been a good an acceptable member since 1832. Mrs. Fuller, 
familiarly known as "Aunt Betsy," was born in Carter county, Tenn., February 
22nd, 1813 and was, therefore, in her 75th year. She was one of Canton's oldest 
citizens-one of the first this writer became acquainted with here, and we shall 
always kindly remember "Aunt Betsy" Fuller. A little while before her death she 
called to her sister and asked if she did not see the familiar faces of those 
dear relatives long since dead, and being answered negatively, she said "why I 
see them just as plain as ever, and how natural they appear! I want to go home 
to them." She then sees afterwards passed sweetly and calmly away. Some time ago 
she wrote the following lines for our album: we prize them very highly. Now that 
the first lines of the last verse have come true with her, we "trust that we all 
in Heaven will meet to sing sweet anthems at Jesus' feet."
In eighteen hundred and seventy-nine
I formed acquaintance with this friend of mine-
An acquaintance I never shall regret, 
His kindness I never can forget.
"May Holy Angels guard his pathway through life;
God bless his noble hearted wife; 
And to him a blessing may his mother be
When I on earth no more his face can see.
"I feel that I soon shall be gone from here
To join with those that have gone before:
I trust that we all in Heaven will meet
To sing sweet anthems at Jesus' feet."
