We are pained to chronicle the death of Miss Rebecca Butler, which sad and untimely event occurred at the residence of her son, Thomas, in New Orleans on the sixth. Her death was entirely unexpected and the result of the sad intelligence of the death of her grandson, Mr. Will Hartzog, at Hebron.

She was in remarkably good health when she received the tidings of his death, but the shock was so great that within twelve hours she was a corpse. Her remains were brought to this county and interred in the family cemetery near Mr. D. R. Longino's last Monday.

How sad, but how true is a Bible verse: In the midst of life we are in death. But sweet consolation will be found in the words of Christ as found in the 26 and 27 verses of the
11th chapter of Saint John: I am the resurrection and the life; he that believed in me though he were dead yet shall he live. And whosoever liveth and believed in me shall never die. It is sad to part with the deceased, but we know that her soul has taken on immortality, the existence of which is in a life of pure delight where joys immortal flow.
