TEXAS CHRISTIAN ADVOCATE, February 18, 1882, p. 7, c. 2

MAYNE.—Mrs. Martha J. Mayne, wife of Bro. W. F. Mayne, near 
Garden Valley, Smith county, Texas, died in the full triumphs 
of the Christian faith, on the 9th of November, 1881, in her 
thirty-second year. She lived a consistent Christian life. her 
infant daughter, Daisy, preceded her to the sunlit hills of 
immortality one month and a day, and little Pearl followed four 
days after her death. Now the mother and her little ones are in 
the glory world. During her affliction she fully exhibited the 
spirit of Christ. She looked upon death as the full fruition of 
all the fullness of God and the Lamb forevermore. She leaves a 
disconsolate husband, a brother, and sister, and four children 
to mourn their loss. She was a good wife and an affectionate 
mother. She is missed by all who knew her.
