Her home for many years was in this vicinity and was a prominent social center whose doors ever stood open to the itinerant preacher, and was in every respect typical of the early hospitality. Her long and eventful life comprehended within its bounds the sum total of human experience of greatest joys and deepest sorrows. She was patient through all her suffering, often expressing her willingness to go. Thus after long waiting she has gone to meet her Savior and to be with the loved ones gone before.
