Died

Af her home in Wishart’s Township, January 9, 1901, the spirit of Mrs. Victoria
Britt passed from earth to heaven.  She was in her 28th year.  She joined
Antioch Baptist Church in 1890 and was baptized by Rev. H. Lennon.  She was
married to Mr. B. E. Britt December 10, 1899.
Her life was comparativeloy short, yet she lived long enough to exhibit to the
world the example of a true, pious Christian life, which is the best legacy on
can leave this world.  We should all strive not to leave less of material things
to bless the world, but more of a benign, Christian influence.  She was
respectful to parents, true to her church and it’s services, a loving, tender
wife and an affectionate mother.
She leaves behind a husband, a large circle of relatives and friends to mourn
their loss, and a little child, whose love is irreplaceable.
Her funeral was conducted by the writer, after which her remains were interred
in the family burying ground.
One less home!
The charmed circle broken, a dear face
Missed day by day from it’s accustomed place:
But cleasned and saved and perfected by grace
One more in Heaven!
One less at home
One voice of welcome hushed and evermore,
One farewell word unspoken; on the shore, 
Whose parting comes not, one soul landed more.
