TEXAS CHRISTIAN ADVOCATE, June 13, 1885, p. 7, c. 3

BAKER.—Mrs. Julia A. Baker was born Sept. 16, 1856; departed this life 
May 9, 1885, in her twenty-ninth year. She professed religion and 
joined the M. E. Church, South, in October, 1877, at Red Springs 
church, near where she was born and in one mile of where she died. 
Sister Baker lived a devoted Christian till the day of her death. She 
was married to Bro. J. F. Baker, Dec. 27, 1877. I asked her just 
before she died, if Jesus was still precious to her. She bowed her 
head, saying he was. She leaves two children—one is gone before. May 
God bless her many relatives and friends, and help them meet her in 
heaven.

C. H. SMITH.
