She was born December 11, 1870, and was married to Mr. E. C. Fogleman December 12, 1889. She joined the Methodist Church on Bayou Boeuf, at Bethel, when 13 years of age. At the little church, in the quiet city of the dead, we laid to rest all that was mortal of this dear young mother to await the resurrection morning. While her family knew that she was very sick, they did not expect her death so early. It was so hard to see her go, and leave her three little boys without a mother's loving care, and the home so desolate. But we know our God doeth all things well, and while we cannot see it now, He has promised that "afterward" we shall know. It is a sweet comfort to know she was ready to go, and is now at rest, "safe in the arms of Jesus." She was conscious to the last, and endured her terrible suffering without a murmur. Just before death released her sweet patient spirit, she kissed all her loved ones good-bye, and said she was not afraid to die. How important it is to be ready, for "at an hour when ye think not, the Son of Man cometh." Dear ones, Susie is "looking this way" "waiting and watching at the beautiful gates" for you. Be ready, when the summons comes. To the heart broken mother, the bereaved husband, brothers and children, we extend our deepest sympathy and commend them to the mourners' friend, for "Earth has no sorrow that God can not heal." - E. D. F.
