The Upson Pilot April 20, 1861

Died. In Upson County, in the 32nd year of her age, Mrs. Elizabeth E. Pichard,
wife of John Pickard, and daughter of Joseph McKindley.

She had been a member of the Baptist Church for a number of years until the close
of her life, she had been for her uniform piety in the relations of daughter,
wife, mother and mistress. Religion was the controlling element of all her
movements. Hers was no fitful piety which today shines forth with the brillance of
a meteor and tomorrow all is dark and forbidding to the beholder. ... Addressing
her son, she said, "My son have you ever tired to pray. My loving husband, my dear
Mother, you all must meet me in Heaven. I shall soon be in a better world than
this. Bring my children that they may receive a mother's blessing. My husband,
farewell, my children farewell, my sisters farewell, meet me in heaven, and with a
shout of triump she passed from earth to join the Angel throng of Heaven.

A Friend.
