IN MEMORIAM OF MRS. SARAH L. REID

Departed this life, March 29th, 1882, Mrs. Sarah L. Reid, wife of N. D. Reid, 
aged thirty-seven years and five months. She was a daughter of Sanders B. and 
Sarah S. Sims of Meriwether county, Ga. In early life she professed a hope in 
Christ and was baptized into the fellowship of Antioch Baptist church by Rev. 
E.S. Harris. 

Her health had been declining for the past two years. To her other sufferings 
were added a bronchial affliction which for several weeks confined her to her 
bed. She expressed a desire to live for the sake of her husband and children, 
but at the same time said that death for her had no terrors.

She leaves a kind husband and three small children, besides many friends and 
relatives to mourn her loss. But they are not comfortless. In her last hours 
she seemed to catch a glimpse of the "promised land" and shouted 
aloud, "Happy, Heaven, Happy Heaven!"
