Reid rreid21@cox.net July 26, 2007, 7:27 pm Liberty Weekly Tribune Died in Liberty, Mo., Nov. 6th, 1885, Mrs. Luella, wife of Jas. A. Griffith, and daughter of Dr. B.R. Mitchell. Mrs. Griffith was born Dec. 26th, 1857, She graduated at Independence Seminary then under the presidency of Prof. French Strother in 1874. On the 21st of March, 1876, she was married to Mr. Griffith. She was converted in 1871 and was baptized by Rev. A. Machette. Sister Griffith died in the triumphs of faith. Conscious to the last, she evinced a perfect resignation to the will of God, and joyfully exclaimed, "Iknow that my Saviour will receive me in His loving arms." She conversed calmly and affectionately to the loved ones around her and entreated them all to meet her in Heaven. Those who were present when she passed away declare that they never saw a more beautiful exhibition of the power of religion to sustain in the dying hour. May God's grace comfort the hearts of the bereaved husband and relatives, and may His rich blessings be upon the dear little children who survive her. T.
