In Swee f Memory of
Mrs, B. C. Brannan
To her dear children, and grand
children oh, how mv poor heart
craves to speak to you every one,
but I know I can not do that, so
it seems that I must write.
Get your Bibles and read with
me, Revelations, 14th chapter and
13 verse. I think it will help me
say what I want to say. And I
heard a voice from Heaven saying
unto me, write blessed are the
dead which die in the Lord, from
henceforth: yea, saith the spirit,
that they may rest from their
labors, and their works do follow
them.
Now dear children and grand
children I think that is the death
your dear mother died. Oh! how
her works and ways has helped
me through my life. You all
know I knew her long before any
of you did. I said her life had
helped me in manv wavs, and I
think you all know too, that she
has helped vou every one. Oh
that sweet spirit she had.
Now I think I can tell vou all
why she had that sweet spirit. I
think her life was a life of prayer
Well do I remember when a little
girl how our dear parents taught
us at home about God and the
Bible and mv oldest sister had
told me that little children ought
to say littl prayers at night before
they went to bed. But some how
I felt ashamed to try, until one
night some power carried me in
to your mother’s room and there I
found my precious sisier, Ele°nor,
and your mother kneeling by her
bed talking 1 think to God. Dear
children 1 can not tell you all how
bad I felt, this thought came to
me with such power, if Eleanor
prays, I must to. So you see her
life is still left behind her to point
us all to trust our dear Saviour
Jesus as she did. And I want to
tell you all this, from that niglit
many years ago when I found her
kneeling in prayer, I decided to
try to pray to, 1 was a mighty
little girl then, but 1 want to tell
Eleanor’s little grandchildren that
I think God heard my little prayer
then and has been mighty good
to me all my life. So I want to
beg you little children to pray,
and trust in God like your grand
mother did. And I want to tell
you this too about myself. The
more I pray, and trust in our dear
Saviour the stronger my faith gets
in the sweet promises of God and
that makes me want to beg you
children to read your Bibles and
pray to God every day, to give
you that sweet quite spirit to help
other folks like your dear grand
mother did. And now to her
dear companion and my dear
brother Ben, still be strong in the
Lord and in the power of his
might. Ephesians, 6th chapter
10th verse, And all of you pray
daily, for God to give me strength
the rest of my time in this life to
know the right and do it.
Aunt Shirley, with lots and lots
of love.
