The Butler Herald, Tuesday, August 23, 1887
In Memoriam 
  Mrs. Nancy Blair, nee Windham, was born in Florida, Aug. 4, 1830; married to
Hiram Blair, Aug. 4, 1850; joined the Methodist church at the Factory under the
ministry of Rev. James Griffith, M. D., in 1860, and died Aug. 7, 1887, leaving
a husband, several children, grand-children and friends to mourn her loss. 
  Sister Blair's life and death was another triumph of the cross and fully
evidenced the truth of the word, that the gospel of Jesus Christ is the power of
God unto salvation to every one that believeth.  And while her life was not
exempt from hardships, trials and severe afflictions, they only had a tendency
to make the light of divine truth shine brighter by her peaceful and
uncomplaining resignations to the will of her heavenly Father.  She frequently
testified as to her willingness and readiness to die and the blessed immortality
that awaited her beyond the grave, and exhorted her husband and loved ones to be
faithful to Christ and the church and meet her in heaven.
  Her body was laid to rest in the family burying ground ( to await the
resurrection morn) with appropriate ceremonies by Rev. T. R. McMichael and the
writer.  J. T. A.
BUTLER, GA., Aug. 12th, '78.
