In Memoriam
Catherine L. Adams, who departed this life at the residence of her husband July 13th, in this county was born in Morgan Co., Ind., May 8th, 1843. She was married to Thomas Pearce February 21st 1864. She was the mother of three children, two of whom still live to mourn her loss. She united with the M. E. church when she was nine years old. Mrs. Pearce held her membership with the Morgantown church until she came to Jennings county in 1871. Mrs. Pearce was a patient sufferer, struggling long with consumption, but always without a murmur, awaiting the end; this she met with a spirit of Christian triumph. Her Christian peace was of the assuring kind, which always brings with it consoling comfort. Death to such a one is stripped of its terror. To none other than the true Christian can the true secret of real resignation be fully known and appreciated. One week before death it was the privilege of the writer of this sketch to visit the deceased. She was in all things most satisfactory. The one uniform expression was, "I patiently await the Voice of the Master." The death of a true Christian mother is not only a loss to the immediate family but to society at large. The community extend Mr. Pearce and sons sincere sympathy. The funeral services were conducted by Rev. J. M. McRee July 14th and interment at Vernon.
