known, had been quite feeble for
several years and often had spells
with her heart, one of which
caused her death. She will be
greatly missed in this communi

visit her friends for quite a long
while before her death, but it
was so much pleasure to her and
her friends, too, to have them
visit her.
She often said that she had
lived long enough and was only
waiting the Master's call and it is
a blessed assurance that she is
asleep in Jesus.
We extend our sympathy to her
bereaved daughter and other rela
tives.
