The Georgia Enterprise, October 7, 1887
Death of Mrs. Silas H. Starr
  Mrs. Starr, wife of our old and valued friend, Mr. Silas H. Starr, Sr., of 
Starrsville, peacefully passed from earth to heaven, at the residence of the 
latter one day last week. A better, nobler, kinder more Christian lady never
"wrapped the drapery of her couch around her and laid down to pleasant dreams,"
than was Mrs. Starr. She was loved by all who knew her, and her pure life and 
spotless character will be a rich and lasting legacy to all the dear ones who
survive her. To the aged husband we tender our condolence and sympathize with 
him in his loneliness, bereavement and sorrow, but we know he grieves not as 
those who have no hope, for when he leaves this world of care and woe he has 
the blessed assurance that he will meet his angel wife in the spirit land where
there will be no more pain or parting, but life, joy and peace forever more.
May this faithful old mother in Israel rest sweetly within her grave yard home 
until the Master bids her welcome to a Mansion in the skies. At the time of her 
death she was 70 years of age.
