Sister Carson lived an unquestionable life, therefore no one would doubt her happiness in the kingdom of glory. She was a faithful wife, a tender, loving mother, and was devoted to her church. She was bereaved of her husband only a few months before she was called away. Her sorrow was deep and her troubles inexpressable, there being left to her all the care of four little children to raise up in a sin stricken world. But the Lord soon said it is enough and took her to himself, leaving the four little children, three girls and one boy, to the tender care of grandparents and other relatives to see to their welfare and training. Inasmuch as the Lord promises to be a father to the orphan, we pray that He may keep a watchful eye over these little ones.
