She had been a consistent member of the Baptist church for a period of fifty- four years, had raised a large family of children, who with her aged husband mourn their loss. Her end was peaceful through faith in her precious Redeemer. Pneumonia was the disease of which she died. She was full of faith and good works, an ornament to the christian profession, of a meek and quiet spirit, one of those Virginia mothers who have done so much to form the character of the people of middle and upper Georgia, and qualify them for the discharge of every duty of Church and State. May her husband, her many children and grand children and numerous friends, be comforted in view of her better state in the Heavenly mansions and be prepared to join her there, when they too are called away by death.
