Tho Labor of An Efficient Corps of
County Ropbrtcrs,
Death ol Itlrs. Hiisuii Pritlk.
Oi.ai.a, Ga., J nil nary 6.—It is
with profound sorrow I write of ihc
dcuHi of Mrs, Husnu Paulk, wife id
Judge M, T. Paulk, which sad event
Occurred Jnnunry 2nd, lit their home
near Kissimmee juistullicc, Thu
cause of her death was typhoid fever,
with which she suffered for twenty
days befoi'e her demise.
She was a good Christian woman;
a truer mother than ever lived;
a loving and devoted wife. She had
many friend*; in luot, to know her
wsh to lovo her.
She passed away quietly and peace
fully as if going to sleep. I am sat
isfied she died ilm (loath of the right
eous, an I believe all of God’s chil-
(Iren, when called fiom this world,
passed away calmly a* slut did.
Thu funeral services were held on
the 4lh Inst., at. old Brushy eree
Primitive Baptist church, of which
she hail bucil a constant ami devoted
member for several years, in tie
presence of a large concourse of
mounting kindred ami friends. The
sermon was preached by the beloved
pastor, Elder \V, II. Harden, froth
Revolutions, 21st chapter and 4th
verse. Ilis remarks upon the life
and character of the deceased were
full of tondor pathos,
The remains wei'e then carried to
the churchyard and, after singing an
adprnpriatu hymn, were consigned to
tllU bold, silent, grave. She has gone
til live with the blessed Jesus for
evermore.
But there is a home shrouded in
darkness and sorrow—that of the Du-
rutved husband; Only a few (lays
since ho hurried his eldest dauglitvr.
Mary J., and now hit) wifo—both dy
ingfrom typhoid fever; and still ho
lms’t’bo more children—Flcm and
Lula—very sick with the mime fever.
How sad and lonely, hoiv dark and
gloomy, i t must be around the .place
to him ! ft is 'heartrending!
The heartfelt sympathy of the
emmimnit.y, ns well as that of his
acquaintances everywhere, goes out
to him in Ins sore alllielnm.
