IN MEMORY OF MARTHA WOOD.
Mrs. Martha Wood was born
in Jackson county, Ga., Lent.
13, I«33, and died at her borne
near Cony ers, Rockdale county,
Ga., January 27, 1895. Her
maiden name was Hunt-r. She
was united in marriage to Rev.
Leslb* Allen Wood on August
24, 1854. Of this union was
born six children, four sons and
two daughteis, all of whom sui
vive. Hhe was converted and
joined the Baptist church at
Lawreuceville, Gwinnett conn
ty, Georgia, in the year 1853
Since that time she has led a
true Christian life, never fa 1 1
ing in any duty which she could
perform for the cause of the
Lord. She united herself by
ter with Salem church August,
18(58, where her membership re¬
mained till her death. Her hus
hand took his flight to his re¬
ward in the faiier land, October
21, 18(58, but she w ithstood this
trial, and was faithful to the re¬
sponsibilities of rearing her chil¬
dren like the true Christian wo¬
man that she was. She was
most devoted to her children,
and spent her life in trying to
rear them in the ways of right¬
eousness and truth, and her la¬
bors and prayers have not been
bestowed in vain,for all her chil¬
dren, save one, have beconn
members of the church, and all
are leading lives of piety and
truthfulness, following onward
in the toot prints of their moth¬
er towards the peaily gates into
which she has passed.
About two years ago her life
began to wane; her Christian
experience grow sweeter ; hei
failh stronger, and her Hopes
grew blighter. Fora longtime
before her death her suffering
was intense. For moio than
eight mouths the lights in hei
home were never extinguished
at night. Her life was real
practical and spiritual It is
sublime to live as she lived. She
■was adequate to the responsibil
ities oflife ; for her death had
im terrors. A/ter death she is
■w ji.h the Lord forever. We shall
Imr among the children of
Light in the city of God.
While we all deeply deplete
the death of Sister Wood, let
strive to emulate the many vir¬
tues that shine out so conspicu¬
ously in her character, and U
pet pel nate the principles to
v hid) the memory of her life
j ointeas an abiding inspiration.
Resolved, 1. That a copy ot
this tiilmteof respect he furnish¬
ed the family of the deceased.
Resolved, 2. That the county
papeis be requested to publish,

Convulsions for 19 Years!
Cured By Dr. Miles’ Nervine!
Convulsions have bafllcd the medical world since the time of the Hippo¬
crates until within the last few years, when Dr. Franklin Miles discovered
his Restorative Nervine. This remedy is^hc king of all medicines for the
herves. It soothes, quiets and restores. It has cured thousands of cases of
convulsions, epilepsy, spasms, fits, St Vitus dance, ects. Mr. ffm. Hearkless
of Kennard, Ind., whose portrait we give above says:
“I want to express my gratitude for the miraculous benefit I have received
from the use of your Dr. Miles’ Restorative Nervine. I had been affleted with
epilepsy Nervine nineteen years in very severe recommended form. An acquaintance, who 1 had used
with excellent results, it to me, and purchased a
bottle, beginning the only one I have used so far. Its effect lias been wonderful, as, since
its use, I have bad but two spells, and those were so light my wife
scarcely knew that I had them at all. 1 shall continue the Nervine until
completely gratification cured. My general health is now excellent, and 1 sleep well. My
over my now assured cine is so great that I can scarcely find
words to express it. If my statement can do humanity any good I am mo - A
than pleased to give it.”
From Forty Spasms a Day to Complete Freedom From Them.
Mrs. .T. Gardner, of Vistula, Ind., wrote six years ago: “For eight years
I was subject to spasms. Some days I would have 40 to 50 spasms and would
remain unconscious for hours and my joints would become stiff. I was long
subject to severe headaches, dizziness, backache and palpitation of the heart,
and was unfitted for work for many years. After taking one bottle of Dr.
Miles’ Nervine a while ago, I was entirely cured of my spasms and greatly im
proved in all other respects. This was after having been treated by eight
physicians )une 3d 18<J3: without any benefit,.” The same lady writes from Goshen, Ind.,
’ > " J havc not > hild a s Pasm since being cured five years ago.”

study and careful investigation. It is the marvel of the age, and the Dr.

I might add that I am a druggist and have

Your Nervine and other remedies also
give excellent satisfaction.” J. n. Watts.
