St. John Book: Mouton Anna Elisa, 66; Burial 02 Jan 1910
As the culmination to a long, tireless and continuous life of self-abnegation, spent entirely in the cause of the Lord, Miss Ann Eliza Mouton, followed by a dense and imposing concourse of friends, coreligionist and of every known denomination in our community, was on last Sunday evening laid to rest in her last mortuary chamber, side by side of those she loved most in life, her father and mother, there to await the final day of resurrection, when the Redeemer shall glorify his election.
Steeled against the pomp and circumstance of this world, neither to the right nor to the left, she looked not, straight ahead in the narrow path she followed, as by Faith, prayer and meditation, her beacon light, she never lost the way to Him who declared, "That whosoever believeth in Me shall not perish but have everlasting life."
And now in the fullness of an undimmed and extraordinary faith, Miss Mouton has passed over onto the undiscovered land, in the unbroken solitude of a narrow cell, back of the old St. John Church, of which in reality she had become part and parcel, lie her mortal remains, awaiting the final summons fo the Redeemer. As with happy blended qualities of head and heart, ever forgiving, she offended none, her friends were legion.
