Raleigh Christian Advocate, October 12, 1881, p. 6.
SARAH C. GADDY

   Departed this life, in Robeson county, N. C., Aug. 20th, 1881,
Sarah C. Gaddy, aged 51 years, 7 months and 4 days, the wife of Rev.
Jessee R. Gaddy.  Sister Gaddy was truly a consistent member of the M.
E. Church, South; for 25 years she worked faithfully in the vineyard
of the Lord, until the Master said “it is enough come up higher.”  How
sad to think that mother is gone !  the dearest tie to husband and
children in this world.  She leaves to mourn their loss a husband, 9
daughters, 2 sons, 1 brother, and a large circle of friends, but they
do not mourn as thouse who have no hope.  She died in peace.  Her
Godly walk and triumphan death is having its effect.  Six of the
children have already been happily converted to God.  Her suffering
was short, one night just as she arose from prayer at her bedside she
felt a stroke of apoplexy – lingered about ten days and died.  Her
funeral was preached over her remains by her pastor, to a large
congregation, after which we laid her wearied body in the silent
grave, near by, to rest until the resurrection morn, when we as
husband, children and friends expect to meet again at the right hand
of the Father in glory.


                                     M. W. Boyles.
