She was one of the early settlers of Texas and could relate many incidents of the trials and deprivations, of those early days. She had made her home with a daughter for a number of years. Her Christian character, kindness of heart, and intense loyalty to her friends, has endeared her to the hearts of many; and while her death caused much grief among her friends, it was not unexpected as she had been in feeble health for several months.
