Brath of Mrs. V, L. Sibley.
One of the saddest deaths that it has
been the painful duty of the Sews to
chronicle occurred in Brunswick Friday,
when the gentle spirit of Sirs. C. L. Bib-
ley winged its flight back to tbe God
who gave it. Mrs. Sibley had for some]
time suffered with consumption, and
while her death was not unexpected it
cast a gloom over her many Lawson rela¬
tives and friends, who have known her
from early girlhood and loved her for
her many noble virtues. She was an
only sister of Mrs, E. A. Emmermanu
of this city. Mrs. Sibley’s pure Christ
ian character shed radiance and beauty
upon those around her. Her gentle hut
heroic spirit, quick sympathies and full¬
ness of charity were characteristics of her
life. The close was fitting for a life so
consecrated. She is gone, but the hal¬
lowed memory of her words and deeds
will rest like a benediction upon the de¬
voted husband, two little daughters, sis¬
ter, relatives and friends'who now mourh
her. The remains of Mrs. Sibley were
brought to Lawson and interred in the
city cemetery Saturday afternoon in the
presence of a large concourse of relatives
and friends, ilev. J. Howard Carpenter
performing the sad rites in beautiful and
impressive language.—Dawson News.
Charlie Sibley and Nellie Griffin were
school mates, and loved each other from,
childhood. They were married when
quite young, ami always seemed rapt in
each others loye. God knows best, but
Charlie has scores of friends who grive
with him in the loss of his dear compan¬
ion, and who extend to him all tbe 'sym¬
pathy human nature is heir to.
