DEATH
MRS. ‘ARY A CUBBACE
Mrs. Mary A. Cabbage?'wife of
Mr. John A. Cubbage, was born in
Savannah Ga., October 9, 1827, and
having lived a long and useful life,
she lingered in the mellow glow of
its evening twilight until the listen
ing ear of Faith and Hope caught
the long message to “Come up high
er,” and there as if Heaven wanted
to gratify her long expressed wish
without scarcely any pain or suffer
ing she fell sweetly asleep in Jesus
at her home near Ogeechee Ga.,
March 4th, 1905.
Life! We’ve been long together. through
Through pleasant and
cloudy weather. friends
’Tis hard to part when are
, dear; tear
Perhaps ’twill cost a sigh or ;
Then steal away, give little warning;
Choose their own time.
Say not “Good night,” but in some
bright dime,
Bid me “Good morning.”
Mr. and Mrs. Cubbage were mar
ried March 15th, 1845, and if she
had lived a few days longer this aged
couple would have rounded out six
ty years of happy married life, and
these blissful years were like April
weather some days were full of sun
shine and others brought rain, for,
‘into each life some rain must fall.”
Some days dark and dreary,” hut
through the storm and the sunshine
they were true to each other and had
faith in God and if we could record
the story of these long happy years
it would read like some rare old love
letter that told of a deathless devo
tion cheered by smiles of happiness
and darkened by clouds of sorrow'.
Mr. Cubbedge is now nearing the
eighty-ninth milestone on life’s feeble rug
ged journey, and is in very
health and it will not be many days
before he will pass over the river

Mrs. Cubbage leaves six children,
Mrs. John Joyner, Mrs. John Min

Cabbage, Mrs. John. R. Mock and
Mrs. Henry Roberts, and a host of
relatives and friends, who together
with her aged husband, to mourn
her departure from earth, and they
will perpetuate her memory by tell
ing to their children’s children the
beautiful story of her sweet unsel
fish life, and she will live in the
hearts and lives of future genera
tions—
‘With a music as sweet a3 the mu
sic which seems.
Breathed softly and faint in the ear
of our dreams.”
Mrs. Cubbage belonged to that
class of women who inspired the
sons of the Old South to win death
less fame upon the battlefields of
the Confederacy, and the history of
that heroic struggle is written in
the tears of the purest women and
in the blood of the bravest men that
ever suffered martyrdom for the
cause of human rights, and until
patriotism ceases to stain men to no
ble deeds the patriot of which was ta
ken in that contest by the women of
Dixie will continue to be the most
thrilling chapter in the story of hu
man deeds.

A suit of clothes cannot walk
alone, but it can go on a tramp.
