She lived to see the other nine all grown and united with the Church of Christ - two sons and seven daughters - all married but one. Early in life she gave her heart to God and remained in His service until death. Possessed of a strong body, vigorous intellect, and having a true conception of women's mission, she entered actively upon the great work of life, first as a dutiful daughter, then as an affectionate wife, then as a devoted mother and withal a faithful earnest christian. Decisive in her convictions, amiable in her disposition, she commanded the confidence and respect of all who knew her.
What a noble life! She has bade adieu to earth, home, children and friends; her spirit borne by angels to the paradise of God, there to await the redemption of the body.
The funeral was conducted by the writer, and a great concourse of people were addressed from Romans 8:2, 'For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death'.
