SUGARTREE RIDGE
On Wednesday evening, Dec. 18th [8 ? ] Mrs. Rachel Igo, wife of Wm. Igo, calmly and peacefully passed into the ocean of eternity. Thus the angel of Death, obedient to the will of the Master, hovers over us, and when the shadow lifts, some one of our loved ones has gone on before. The bereaved husband and son have the sympathy of the entire community. But with the sweet assurance of eternal life. She bade her friends not mourn for her, for like the weary voyager, the breakers were music to her ear, and she exclaimed, "Thy will, not mine, be done."
"Death pasues not from morn till e'en,
Tho the day is fair, and life's meads are green;
But the steady dip of his sileot oar
Bears us along from shore to shore."
HYACINTH.
