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.
