Sister S was baptized into the fellowship of Republican Baptist church in September 1847 and exemplified the christian in every department of life assigned her by Divine Providence. She has been afflicted several years, but she bore her affliction with meekness and christian fortitude. She leaves a husband, four children and numerous friends to mourn her loss; but they sorrow not as those without hope. Her funeral was preached on the 28th by Elder J. Bunch from Psalm xxxiv:19 - after which her body was conveyed to its last resting place till the morning of the resurrection. But her spirit has gone to God who gave it there to enjoy the presence of her Redeemer forever, "where the wicked cease from troubling and the weary are at rest".
