(Stroudsburg, Pa.) 1853-1911: December 21, 1865 Mrs. Susan Drake, wife of Alfred Drake, died on Friday, Dec. 15, in the 53d year of her age. A faithful and affectionate wife and mother, a kind neighbor and a true christian, she has passed away to the better land, leaving behind her a precious memory, and encouraging her sorrowing family and friends, to follow her, as she followed Christ. Although very severe sufferings were her portion during her last sickness, her faith and patience did not fail, and she calmly fell asleep in Jesus. Her funeral was very largely attended, the religious services being held in the M. E. Church, and a discourse delivered from Psalm 46 : 1 File at: http://files.usgwarchives.net/pa/monroe/obits/d/drake17026gob.txt This file has been created by a form at http://www.genrecords.org/pafiles/ File size: 1.3 Kb
