On Tuesday following, her body having been brought to Richmond, was laid to rest by the side of her husband in Hollywood after impressive services in her own loved church (the Grace St. Presbyterian) conducted by Rev. Dr. James P. Smith and Rev. Charles R. Stribling. Mrs. Baldwin was born Dec. 24, 1831, in Newark, New Jersey, the daughter of Johnson G. and Jane B. Baldwin. On the eleventh (11th) day of August, 1852, she was uappily married to Mr. Thomas S. Baldwin, formerly of the same place, but then a resident of Richmond, where they continued to make their home and were identified with the city's best interests until April 27, 1870, when her husband lost his life in the Capitol Disaster. Being staunch Presbyterians their first church connection in Richmond was placet} with the United Presbyterian Church, now the Grace Street, under tne pastoral charge of Dr. Chas. H. Read, its capacity. For four long years it was being an honored elder at the time of his death. During the war the hospitality of their home was only bounded by After purchasing a home and removing to Church Hill their membership was transferred to the Third Church, where they both entered heartily into all the good work of that church, Mr. Baldwin full at all times with the sick and needy to all of whom she ministered with un failing kindness. To the hosnitAln around her she was a constant visitor and doubtless many a lonely heart was cheered by her bright smile and material help. ' " H. August 25, 1909. She was one of the charter members of the Oakwood Memorial Association. After the death of Mr. Baldwin and. the removal to another part of the city she renewed her membership with the Grace Street Church. The esteem which she aarned there, and in which she was held can not better be described than in the words of her beloved pastor, Dr. Withersnnnn "Hno ?? ?v- * , ui lue iriais tliat has been mine this summer was my absence from home at the time and the consequent prevention from taking part in the funeral services I can truly say that in a long pastorate covering several churches 1 have never had a parishioner who was more comfort and joy to me than she was. She was ever sympathetic and appreciative and her cheerful, sunshiny temperament made association with her a peculiar pleasure. Now that she has gone from us I shall miss and lament her as the davs wasp on, I do not love to think of what her removal means to our church where for so many years she has stood in her place and met every responsibility with zeal and fidelity. To enrich the church above by her translation our Father lias impoverished the one church she loved and served so well." Next to her devotion to her children, grandchildren and great grandchildren and her God and church, the object of her greatest care and labor was the Retreat for the Sick. Being one of its organizers and for a long time its vicepresident, its interests were ever on her heart and mind, even during the two years past when she was practically shut in by failing health. Mrs. Baldwin is survived by four children, six grand children and five great grand children. The children are Mrs. Chas. D. Larus, of Richmond- t ..*i?
