Obituary
Unidentified Newsclipping - 1876
MOGG.--Lovina Andrews, wife of Cornelius Mogg, passed to her heavenly rest from Euclid, December 27, 1876, lacking only five days of being 51 years of age. Sister Mogg was born in Cicero, New York, in 1826. She was converted under the labors of Rev. Wm. Ottmann, a Lutheran Divine, in 1863 and united with the Methodist Episcopal Church at the time Brother J. D. Adams served this charge. Her Christian life was thoroughly consistent and practical. Her influence was felt in every department of her Church, and also in all social circles. Whatever might be the pressing cares and duties of life, Christ was ever the leading thought. However warm her sympathies and strong her attachments to earthly friends, and these were pure and elevated, Jesus was the one altogether lovely. Her life was consecrated to His service. Believing and acting upon the Scriptural teaching that her children were to be trained up in the nurture and admonition of the Lord, she had the unspeakable satisfaction of seeing her oldest sons converted, and become members of the Church of her choice, and it is hoped that the youngest will soon be led to his mother's Savior. A cancer slowly wasted her life away, but she was fully ready. Like St. Peter, she often longed to depart and be with Christ. While she will be missed in the church and community, and by a large circle of relatives, none will feel their loss like her husband and her children; but they mourn in hope. "Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be; but we know that when we shall appear, we shall be like Him, for we shall see him as he is."
