DEATH OF MRS. GEO. W. HALL.

A Loving and Lovable Wife, Mother and Friend Passes to Her Reward.

On Monday evening at 6:30 o'clock Mrs. George W. Hall departed this life, after an illness of eight days. Death came painlessly and gently as if in answer to the prayer "Lord, now lettest thou thy servant depart in peace." She was mercifully spared the consciousness of suffering; as one of her children touchingly said, "we suffered for her and were glad to hear it," In all relations of life Mrs. Hall was true and faithful. To her husband she was all that the word wife implies, one in whom his heart could safely trust, She was to him a faithful friend and loving companion, sharing with fortitude the hardships of life, and accepting it good things with grateful pleasure. She was eminently a home-making and home-keeping woman and in this not too easy office, brought to bear a peculiarly cheerful and hopeful disposition under all circumstances, which made home to the family the place where they best loved to be. Around her clustered all the hopes and plans of her children. For them she spent her life. What greater reward for a life of duty and self-sacrifice could there have been for her than that which she had in seeing all her children grow to useful and complete womanhood, the fruition of a faithful mother's love and influence. Her children can truly rise up and call her blessed. She lived out the "allotted time," as she had passed her 71st birthday last April, and lived to see her grandson grow from infancy to childhood. Three or four years since Mrs. Hall united with Center Presbyterian church, but before actually becoming a church member she had lead a thoroughly Christian life.

She belonged to the Swearengin family, early pioneers of the State and county whose wonderful development she lived to see and enjoy. The greater part of her life was passed in this county, with the exception of seventeen years passed in Tippecanoe county, but in this place center all the associations of youth, maturity and age. She will be greatly missed by her many friends and relatives, most of all by the husband of her youth and her devoted daughters, and to them we extend, not empty words of condolence, but our sincere sympathy.
