Mrs Polly DeVane
After three long years of patient afflictions, the
messenger of death entered the home of Mr. F.M. DeVane on
last Monday morning and laid lands upon his beloved wife,
Mrs Polly DeVane. While she had been an invalid for more
than three years, recently, her condition had greatlly
improved and none of her loved ones were prepared to
receive the sudden shock coming as it did--- without
warning.

She had just finished a hearty breakfast and appeared to be
unusually bright for one of her condition, when suddenly
she was seized with a effection of the heart and before
relief could be given she was dead.

Mrs. DeVane lived an honorable, pure, christian life of
more than fifty years, having been a consistent member of
the methodist church since her early girl-hood. She leaves
a husband and a large family of children who will greatly
miss the sweet influence of wife and mother.

In the presence of a large number of relatives and friends
she was laid to rest at the Hopewell cemetery, Tuesday
morning a very beautiful and appropriated service being
performed by Rev. R.F. Williamson.
