TEXAS CHRISTIAN ADVOCATE, June 20, 1885, p. 7, c. 3

LANE.—Sister Eveline Lane, daughter of Dr. G. B. and Mary Wade, of 
Missouri, was born January 20, 1828, and died in Smith county, 
Texas, May 20, 1885. She was married to Bro. J. H. Lane, Nov. 7, 
1847. She leaves behind her a grief-stricken husband and four 
children, one daughter and three sons, and some have preceded her 
to the better land. Sister Lane has been a member of the M. E. 
Church, South, for upward of thirty years, and was a consistent 
Christian, a true and loving companion and an intelligent, devoted 
mother. We all miss her, but submit to the providence of Him who 
doeth all things well. She loved her Bible, and read it a great 
deal. She died rational and in sight of heaven. May the husband 
and children all imitate her virtues, and so meet where there is 
no death. "I heard a voice from heaven saying unto me, write, 
Blessed are the dead which die in the Lord from henceforth; yea, 
saith the Spirit, that they rest from their labors, and their works
do follow them."
