Death, the Harvester, has taken Mrs. Jefferson Thomas, our friend and as sociate. in her deceaaa the family and friends have suffered an Irreparable loss; to her It was: "•Golden sheaves and scattered grain. Days aha had not lived In vain.’ “Days nobly planned, and deeds that crowned her In the beautiful city of virtue and godliness. "In every relation of life she was hobly Inclined: as wife, mother, friend and patriot—we may add that In all of our .Southland, could not be found a more patriotic heart. "In the days of the country*! crista snd struggle, when conditions devel oped characters, our friend stood the lest, and no heart beat more fervently for the welfare of the struggling land, *nd no heart sorrowed more deeply »hen Its hope went down. Accepting defeat with a resignation that was a Part of her nature, she contemplated the condition of tho land, taking In Its heeds and realised that, although wea ned In the four years' effort, the women of the South could not told their hands, there was work to do. "Monuments must be erected, records kept, graves preserved. To do this women came together and orgnnlaed themselves In bands called associations, each woman pledging herself to con centrate every energy In furtherance of the object In view. "In our city the Ladles’ Memorial As. soclatlon was organized, and Mrs. Thomas was a valued member for thtr. ty years; seven years secretary of the association. “How well she served other Confed erate organizations In mother home Is honorably recorded, and how much de pended upon her wisdom and brave effort! "To the very last showing a loyal fidelity for the cause and memories she assisted In keeping green! "Be It resolved. That our associate has left our ranks forever on earth, and there will be one woman the less of the old days to labor for our heroes both living and dead: that we will sor rowfully keep In our remembrance what she had been as a co-worker and associate: that God has taken her from us to His home, where she will be fsr removed from change and human ca lamity. “LEILA RAINS SMYTHE. “Secretary.” ENGAGEMENTS OF MISSE8 LANE.
