Sister Tate had been a faithful and devoted Christian and consistent member of the M. E. Church, South, for about thirty years prior to her death. She and her devoted husband, though aged and infirm, knelt together in prayer at the close of each day. Their hearts were one, united by the strongest of earthly ties. They are severed now, and Uncle Jim (as we call him) weeps over her grave. To-day she is in heaven, for she said: "It is all well with my soul." Then we will not sorrow as those who have no hope for we believe in the resurrection of the just. W. H. Crawford. Lindale, Texas.
