A Sketch of Her Life This morning at 10:30 o'clock Mrs. Ann Elizabeth Brandon Jones died in the eightieth year of jher age. . -v The funeral will be at the First Presbyterian church tomorrow at 3:30 p. in., and the interment will be in the English grave yard, be side hfr only son, the late Hugh M. Jones. Mrs. Jones was the daughter of Thos. M. and Mary Cook, whore sided in the western edge of Row an county, near the Iredell line. She was married to Henry Jones in 1844, who died in 1848, leaving one son. In 1856 she and her son moved to Salisbury where they both closed their lives. Mrs. Jones was a devoted member of the Presbyterian church, a christian of the old-fashioned Scriptural type. Many were the trials and afflictions through which she was called to pass, but she bore them all with christian patience and submission. Every one had the utmost confidence in her piety, and many friends will feel sorrow ful at missing her in her accus tomed place. She died in faith, and in the hope of a blessed im mortality. Not long: before the closing hour with eager face she whispered. "Jesus, lover of my soul, Let me to thy bosom fly." - Pastor. A Model Market. Mr. R. W Paice's meat market is a model one now.
