"The LaFayette Sun" - February 10, 1892:

Mrs. Jane Hubbard.

This highly esteemed lady died last night at the home of her only child, Mr. S. A. Still, in this town. Mrs. Hubbard was brought here in an invalid condition about ten days ago from Opelika. For several days she has been suffering from LaGrippe, which terminated in pneumonia, causing her death. She was about 64 years of age, a member of the Primitive Baptist Church and a devout woman. Her remains will be interred in the cemetery at Macedonia at 10 o'clock tomorrow. Our heart felt sympathy is with the stricken family.

"The LaFayette Sun" - February 17, 1892:

We have recently been reminded that in the midst of "life is death," by the manifestations of God's power in the number of deaths that have occurred lately. On last Thursday, the 11th inst., the remains of Mrs. Jane Hubbard were interred in the cemetery at Macedonia. She was a most estimable lady and devout Christian and was dearly beloved by all who knew her. On yesterday, the 14th inst., all that was mortal of her only son, Mr. S. A. Still, was consigned to the silent tomb, there to await the "resurrection morn." Elder J. T. Satterwhite conducted the funeral services of each.

Sarah Jane Hubbard – Seaborn A. Still.

Only three days difference in the death of this lovely mother and son. Sister Hubbard was born August 16th, 1828, and departed this life February 10th, 1892. She joined the church of Christ (referring to the Primitive Baptists) the second Sunday in September 1885. During the short time she lived in the church she let the light shine which God had given her. We have never known one more devoted, more Christ-like, than this sister in Israel. Many pages could be written in praise of this noble woman, but even then those who knew her best could truthfully say, "the attempt is a failure." Hence it is useless in this short space to attempt it, but will repeat some of the above, in which much will be comprehended, and say "she was Christ-like." Before she joined the church she loved the people of God, even from her girlhood. For many years she made her home with her son, above named, and was much help to his devoted wife in the care of their children, and both being taken away so near together made it one of the heaviest shocks to the widow and five little children that I ever witnessed. Lagrippe was the monster that brought down the awful stroke, and at the same time made its attack upon his wife and oldest son with such force that we almost cannot despair of their recover; but it pleased God to raise them up, and they are now doing as well, perhaps, as any should under the same circumstances. Sister Hubbard was twice married – first to Mr. Still, second to Mr. Hubbard.

Brother Still was born April 20th, 1855, and died February 13th, 1892; was married to Sister Susie Hubbard, March 8th, 1877, to whom were born six children. He joined the church Saturday before the second Sunday in July 1886, and suffice it to say, he was one of its most useful members until his death, diligently searching the Scriptures, and contending earnestly for the faith. He was one of our best citizens, a man of prosperity and influence in many good ways. Everything committed to his hands prospered, and he administered to the necessities of the Saints, given to hospitality.

Their remains were carried to Macedonia Church, Chambers County, Ala. where they were members, and after preaching by the writer were consigned to the tomb to await resurrection.
