Mrs Mariah Pack, the subject of this sketch, was born at Table Rock, West Virginia,
April 16, 1852, and died at her home near Empire church November 11, 1887, aged 35 years, 6 months and 25 days. She united with the Christian church at the age of fourteen, and from that time until the time of her death she lived a life worthy of the religion she professed. Few, if any, have gathered about them more or warmer friends among those with whom they came in contact than she has. She leaves a devoted husband and five children to mourn her loss. The friends showed their warm sympathies and esteem by the many that gathered to pay the last tribute of respect. There being the largest concourse of friends we have ever seen gathered on an occasion of this kind. It may truly be said of our sister, "She rests from her labors and her works do follow her.

Died at Empire on the evening of November 11, Mrs M Pack, wife of J P Pack, aged 35 years.
She was taken away very suddenly, only suffering a few days; but her suffering was severe until death relieved her pain. She was a true wife and mother and has been a consistent member of the Christian church since her youth. She leaves a husband and five children to mourn her loss. Mrs Pack will long be remembered with affection by the people among whom she lived. Her friends are many and there are none but speak her praise. The funeral service were attended Sunday, November 13, at the Empire church, by a large company of interested friends, there being about 500 present. Mr McCash, of Empire conducted the services.
Mr Pack and family have the heartfelt sympathies of the entire community. The church was filled to its utmost capacity, and the large cavalcade which followed the remains to their last resting place, told of the respect in which the departed and and family were held by the community in which they lived.
