CRAINE - DEATH OF AN ESTIMABLE YOUNG LADY - On Friday morning last, 
Miss Mollie Blanche Craine, died at the residence of her grandmother, 
Mrs. Jane Lemon, in the 25th year of her age.  Miss Craine was a 
favorite in this community - beautiful in person, amiable and vivacious 
in disposition, she enjoyed the friendship and esteem of all who knew 
her.  For a few years past she has been marked by that fell-destroyer 
of the human race - Consumption - as a victim of his own, but she never 
repined, and was cheerful and happy even when suffering upon her couch, 
as she did for the last few months of her life.  We condole with her 
mourning relatives and friends.  She is gone, however, and leaves only 
the precious legacy to her friends, of a sweet and gentle disposition, 
a pure and spotless life - one in every way fitted to be the compassion 
of Good Spirits, and the Guardian Angel to intercede for her friends, 
whom she has left behind.  On Sunday afternoon, after appropriate 
ceremonies, her remains were followed to the Presbyterian Cemetery, by 
a large number of her relatives, and by numerous sympathizing friends.
