The Georgia Enterprise, July 19, 1888
DEATH’S SAD ROLL
     Mrs. Sarah E. Means, an aged and honored lady, died at her home in Oxford 
on Saturday morning last. Aged about 36 years, perhaps 35 yrs. She was the wife 
of the late venerable Dr. Alexander Means, and a better, kinder-hearted lady 
never lived or died than was she. The long years of her existence was devoted 
to making those around her happy. For some time past she has been in feeble 
health and her death was not entirely unexpected. Her life of Christian 
benevolence and sweet charity is as a rich legacy to those she leaves behind. 
Let not the dear ones of her earthly household mourn as those without hope, for 
this pure and noble woman had so lived that she knew full well before she died 
that a crown of righteousness was laid up for her in Heaven. Sleep sweetly, 
sainted mother in Israel, for thou art now far beyond the pale, strife and care 
of this world, and are safe at home in  thy Father’s house, where rest, peace 
and joy will be thine throughout all eternity.
