the cemetary at Cane Creek,
Orange county, where her father
and mother and her first hus
band sleep quietly until the res-^
urrection morn. She had reach
ed the fortieth mile post in life.
She left a husband and two child-,
ren by her first husband, none
by the last, three brothers and
six sisters to mourn their loss.
She died as she lived, a good wo
man. She didn’t fear death,
while the bright seraphic gleam
was playing over her face one
would think her Savior was by
by her taking care of her. She
was a member of the Baptist
church at Greensboro and had
not moved her membership when
the death angel touched her.
