Death of Mrs. Catherine Baisden This excellenT lady
died at the residence of her husband, T.F. Jaisden of
Schley County, on Monday afternoon, between seventy-
five and eighty years old. She was a good woman, a true
Christian and has raised a family of boys and girls to
maturity, impressed with all the christian virtues of
her noble womanhood. She leaves a rich legacy of pure
christian grace for them to imitate

Died- On Monday afternoon the 11th inst. of
consumption, Catherine, wife of T.J. Baisden. Mrs.
Baisden was sixty-nine years old, and as a faithful and
loving wife, she had lived over fifty years,rearing
several children, who have families of their own. Mr. &
Mrs.T.J. Baisden were among the  first settlers of this
section of the country, enduring the hardships
incidental to pioneer life. None ever left their roof
hungry, and we believe that it was a living truth that
Mrs. Baisden uttered just before she died, when she
said that she never had borne malice in her heard. Hand
in hand, and heart in heart this couple marched down
life's rugged road, and as the wife stepped over the
river, she holds the pearly gate ajar for her husband
to follow. (died 12 Aug 1884 Schley Co. Ga.)
