DEATHS.
BALLINGER—Eighth month 26, 1880, Margaret, wife of Nathan H. Ballinger. The funeral took place on the following day at 3:30 o'clock, a large concourse of people being present. The occasion was very impressive, and there were several testimonies given to her worth. She was endowed by nature with a very amiable disposition, which made her company not only desirable, but a real pleasure. In the year 1864 she had deep conviction, and as she yielded thereto realized a change of heart, and such a one that there was added grace and glory to her outward life and spirit. In her walk was manifested the meekness and gentleness of spirit of Christ.....
She was a very tender mother, a kind neighbor, a diligent visitor of the sick and afflicted; and, above all, she was one that served God with reverence and filial fear....
Her sickness lasted for several months... And now, in giving my testimony to the worth of one so dear to many hearts, as well as to the bereaved husband and tender children. I will say, that it may be written of her, "She hath done what she could," and Spiceland Monthly Meeting has lost one who shone as a bright star. F. W. THOMAS.
