THE GRAVE -

DIED-In Gainesville, Ozark Co., Mo., June 6 1882, of softening of the brain, at the residence of her son - Dr. John T. Arnold -

Mrs. Anna P Arnold, aged 69 years, 2 months and 19 days.

Mrs. Arnold, whose maiden name was Price, was born in Russell county, VA., March 17, 1813, was married to James Arnold, December 10, 1835, moved to Greene Co., Mo., in 1836, where her husband died December, 1851, leaving her with a family of small children to rear and educate. She was a lady of energy and fortitude - self-sacrificing and patient, doing all in her power for the benefit of her children.

The deceased had lived to see her children enjoy comfortable situations in life, and though comparatively among strangers during her last illness, she was not without friends who appeared to vie with each other in their efforts to make her last days comfortable.

Though her affliction was such that she was deprived of the power of speech, she, no doubt thanked the kind friends in her heart.

At an early age she make a confession and joined the Methodist Episcopal Church South, and through all vicissitudes incident to life, amid its trials and tribulations, she demeaned herself as one who could, by faith, see that blessed reward, that awaits those who are faithful to the end.

Mrs. Arnold was a noble type of woman - patient, faithful, kind and forbearing; gentle and mild in her conduct. As a neighbor and friend she had but few equals, leaving the shores of dull mortality without an enemy, and her spirit was launched upon the waters of eternity. O, death, where is thy sting? O, grave thy victory?

Our friend has paid the debt which, sooner or later, we all shall pay. But why should we weep? Her spirit has departed to light a brighter mansion and arrange a happier home, and there to join her loved ones gone before in songs of praise to her Redeemer, in that bright world where storms do not arise and sorrows never come.

"No more that sweetly trnating vine
Shall gladden earth with flowers;
Transplanted now to other clime"
It blooms in Eden's bowers."
