In Memoriam

Mrs. Christian Joiner, the subject of this notice, was the wife of Henry 
Joiner, of Taylor County Georgia.  She passed away quietly in death at the home 
of her husband on Sunday the 6th of October and was buried at Bethel Church on 
the 7th ’89.  Aunt Kitty as she was usually called, was aged 71 years and some 
months.  She had lived in marriage for upwards of 50 years, fulfilling her duty 
as wife and mother in much faithfulness.  She leaves a husband, two sons and 
two daughters, with other relatives who grieve and mourn their sad loss.  
Deceased was not by public profession a member of the church; yet she left many 
evidences of love toward God and faith in Christ.  During her affliction in the 
close of it which confined her mostly to the house and often her bed she 
expressed a great desire to follow Christ in baptism; but her health hindered a 
fulfillment of her desire.  In the close of life she expressed herself free 
from the fear of death, believing that the end would be eternal rest.  She 
often requested that Elder J.G. Murray be asked to attend her burial and 
conduct the funeral services; but owing to previous appointment Elder Murray 
was unavoidably absent.  May a merciful and gracious God comfort the sorrowing 
husband and children.

B. Stewart
