In Memoriam
Obituaries, like funerals, cannot benefit the dead. But we think the death of Mrs. M.V., wife of James T.G. Caldwell, which occurred in Zebulon, Ga., on the 8th July inst., aged 47 years, deserves more than a passing notice. She was born in Monroe county, Ga., and was the daughter of John and Martha Redding. She married J.T.G. Caldwell and lived with him in Pike county devotedly for more than thirty years, raising a large and very interesting family of children. Having joined the Methodist church when young, she lived a consistent and Christian life. Being quiet in disposition, smooth in manners, and charitable towards all, of course she had many friends to mourn her loss. But none can feel it like the husband and children. But when they think how she died and what she said when she was pronouncing the dying blessing upon each one of the family, and that she said when she asked her husband if she was dying, that if it was the will of God she was ready, they cannot grieve as those who have no hope. Her life was a consistent one in every respect and she died as she had lived. - Brother.
