"The Sabbath Recorder", Vol 59, No 48, p 765, Nov. 30, 1903.

In Alfred, N. Y., Nov. 2, 1903, Mrs. A. E. Main, aged 58 years.

Lucie Elizabeth Carr Main was born in North Stonington, Conn., Sept. 4, 1845. She was the only daughter of the late Hon. Sands C. Carr and Lucy A. Green Carr, and the granddaughter of Elder John Green, so widely known in an early day. Suddenly stricken by cerebral hemorrhage, she passed from this life at her home in Alfred, Nov. 2, 1903. She leaves her husband, her two sons, Daniel and George, and her only brother, Nathan.

She was educated at Hopkinton Academy and Gannett Institute, Boston. Oct. 6, 1875, she was married to Rev. A. E. Main, then pastor of the First Hopkinton church. With the exception of about three years in Florida, five in Plainfield, and four in Alfred, their home continued to be in Ashaway. She was baptized when a girl, becoming a member of the First Hopkinton church, whence her membership was transferred to Plainfield, then to Alfred. She had faith in God and was confident that all things would work together for good to those who loved him. She died "in the harness," as it was her wish to do, compassed about with loving care. She had seen her husband installed in his important office as Dean of the Theological Seminary, her boys established and doing strong, manly work. Death was moving out from old house to the new.

A large number of friends looked upon the peaceful face during the morning of Nov. 5. In the afternoon simple home services were held. Pastor George B. Shaw of Plainfield, Pres. Davis, Pastor E. M. Deems of Hornellsville, and Pastor Randolph spoke as friends, lovingly and appreciatingly of the brave, sweet woman who had received the "Well done."

May He whose tender mercy is over all, lovingly lead his own.
