Mary Jane Moore, wife of Henry David MOORE and daughter of Henry C.
and Mary E. ASHPAUGH, but now the adopted daughter of R. H. and Mary
BARRICK, aged 25 years, 2 months and 4 days. The deceased was born
in Hart county, Kentucky, 25 Dec 1855, and removed to this State with her 
parents in the fall of 1857, and at the early age of 13 years made a profession
of religion and joined the Baptist church at Charity and continued a member
up to her death. The deceased was taken sick about one year ago with
complication of diseases which finally Terminated in that dreadful disease,
consumption. In regard to what change took place in the year that intervened
between joining the church and the commencement of her sickness, I know not,
but in her affliction she often expressed herself that all was right in view of
eternity. She said "While I shall like to live, for I've a great deal to live for, I'm
willing to go," leaving ample evidence of her peace with her Heavenly Master.
Thus another witness has passed away, leaving ample evidence in Christ as her 
Savior, Up to ten days before she died she had often expressed her self that she
would get well, but from that time gave up her recovery was impossible.
Thus she passed away leaving a husband and four small children, mother
and Numerous other friends to mourn her. R.H.B. (Richard H. BARRICK)
