Mrs. S. J. Cartledge Died in Wash
ington, Ga.
On the 7th of this month the gen
tle spirit of Mrs. S. J. Cartledge was
released from the frail body which
for about thirty-one years had been
its tenement, and soared away to the
bosom of the Father to rest ever
more in His life-giving presence.
In early life, as Miss Laura Burns,
Bhe evidenced something of the
strong religious tendencies which so
decidedly characterized her after
life. She joined the Presbyterian
church when nine years old, and the
sincerity of her purpose then was
strengthened and crystalized by the
trials which beset the path of every
traveler through earth’s vale of tears.
So constant and so close was her
companionship with God that the
last moments of her stay with her
husband and little ones, so terribly
sad because of the parting, were to
her but the opening of the portals
for her welcome entrance home.
How real was the thought to her.
It was Home just beyond the dark
waters of death; Home, after life’s
rough voyage; Home, with its love
and its peace, and the endless sun
shine of God’s fatherly presence; His
child was but going home.
Married in November, 1889, to Rev.
S. J. Cartledge, she did faithfully
what she could to adorn the gospel
of Christ and prove herself a help
meet indeed to one of its chosen
heralds.
So deep and sincere was her inter
est in Christian work, that even after
the frail suffering body was confined
to its bed to be with us but a few
days more, her contribution was sent
as usual to the Missionary society,
and flowers went love and
sympathy to a little sick child whom
she was too ill to visit. Lnselfish,
thoughtful of others to the very last,
what a beautiful ending of a beauti
tiful life which is but made more
perfect as an angel of God —"VN ash
