Brown, wife of M. T. Brown, deceased, was born in Tennessee in November, 1822; emigrated to Texas at an early day and settled in the Red Spring neighborhood. She professed religion and joined the Methodist Episcopal Church, South, in the year 1873, in which church she lived a devoted and consistent member until May 27, 1887—she left the church below and joined the church above. Her own son said the other day: "I have been trying to think if I ever knew mother do one wrong thing, and yet," he said, "I can think of nothing." She died in great peace, and her sufferings are over. She is, we think, where suffering is ended. May God bless all of her relatives and help them meet her in heaven. C. H. Smith.
