She made it a point to visit around among her children and when she went to visit her daughter, where she died, when she met her at the gate, said that she had come to stay a week with her; and just one week, almost to the hour that she walked in the gate, feeling as well as usual, she was taken out a corpse . But such is life, “Be ye also ready, for in such an hour as ye think not when the Son of Man cometh.”
Funeral services were held at Blair Chapel Sabbath Day, conducted by Rev. S. W. Lee of Wick and interment was made in the cemetery near the church.
