Obituary - Died Buckley - At her residence, in this village, jan. 16, 1877, Mrs. Marianne Buckley, in the 75th year of her age. Mrs. Buckley was born Feb. 27th, 1802 in London, and was married to Mathew Buckley Oct. 11th, 1825. They have resided in Delavan since 1847. The fiftieth anniversary of their marriage was commemorated Oct. 11, 1875, at the residence of their daughter, Mrs. O. Crosby. Thus, for more than fifty one years, Mrs. Buckley and her beloved companion have journeyed together hand in hand, bringing along with them down to old age, both the buoyancy and the love of their youth. Her years increased and the anniversary of her wedding came round half a hundred times; children and grand-children, sprang up around her to call her blessed; but some how, this gentle, loving one, never grew old. Her disposition seemed as sweet and her face as happy after fifty years of wedded life, as the day it began at Lambeth Chapel in London. And so her company to her grand children was as congenial and welcome as that of their young associates, and all through her family her influence was felt to be a brightening and a sweetening one, taking the pathway of life more sweet and easy: and surely for the wife and mother who thus lives, life affords a sphere and a calling as lofty as the ministry of angels. Mrs. Buckley was brought up in the faith and worship of the English Church, in which she was confirmed in 1849. She loved its service and saw much beauty in its forms. But her attachment to her own church was not marred by any narrow of exclusive feeling. She loved to hear the word of God preached by any true servant of our Redeemer. She loved to join in prayer with any one who had access to God through Jesus Christ. For years back she had been growing in spiritual life, and in her last sickness she gave evidence in a delightful manner of the maturity of the work of grace in her heart. When the final illness came it found her ready. There was no hurried doing of duties neglected. Her work was done. The bed of sickness she said was just "no place at all" for repentance and preparation for eternity. It only remained that the light which had shone so evenly and cheeringly all through the days of activity and health, should, for a little while, give its light from the chamber of sickness and suffering, and placed there it only shone the brighter till the hand of death transferred it to shine in the other world. And thus with a calm living confidence in her Savior, which death could not shake, and with a happy looking for reunion with friends gone before, she passed away. Her greatest trial was the leaving behind of her beloved companion with whom she had lived so long. Her gain was, for the present, to be his loss, and many a lonely hour was to come to him. But this separation is us for a little while, and in the meantime the cheering influences of her life must live in him and in her children. As long as life lasts, they can say: "Whatever way my days decline, I felt and feel, though left alone, Her being working in mine own, The footsteps of her life in mine."
