The Georgia Enterprise, June 2, 1892
MRS. SALLIE CAMP IS DEAD
     Mrs. Sallie A. CAMP, wife of Mr. Harry CAMP, departed this life Saturday 
night, May 28th, in the 80th year of her age. The funeral services were 
conducted by Rev. R. W. BIGHAM at the Methodist Church Sunday afternoon, there 
being a large number of relatives and friends present. For more than sixty 
years she was a loyal, loving wife to her husband. For more than half a century 
she was a faithful, consistent member of the Methodist Church. She was always 
hopeful and cheerful, and often said that “the cares of life I place behind me, 
but the cross of Christ I always keep before me.” She was a plain, 
unpretentious woman who drew around her a circle of devoted friends such as 
falls to the lot of few people in this world to possess. She had a hand and a 
heart “open as day to melting charity.” Her nature was essentially one of daily 
life, her chief concern being to do good without ostentation. She will be 
mourned by many and by none more than by the poor, the lowly and the afflicted, 
whom she made it her pleasure and her duty for many years to visit, to relieve 
and to comfort. She has left us, but this old world has been made better by her 
having lived in it.
