She professed religion in early life; was married to her now bereaved husband Dec 26th,1856. For nearly 20 years she trod the path of life with her husband in all varied relations, its trials and its joys, sharing its burdens and duties as a helpmate indeed. All this time, as the faithful wife of an intinerant minister; she never detained her husband from an appointment. During her last illness she spoke frequently of her approaching dissolution, and expressed a desire to depart and be with Christ. She arranged for her funeral services as far as possible, requesting Rev W A Dotson to preach her funeral sermon from Prov 27, 1. As she neared the close, she rejoiced much in God her Savior, and when near the river's bank, she saw the smiling Redeemer waiting to receive her. She thus fell asleep in Jesus on the 21st of December last, aged 41 years, 2 months, and 17 days. So past away a faithful Christian -- a good wife -- a kind neighbor -- and a tender and affectionate mother.
