Died, August 10. 1902. at her home near Honea Path, Mrs. Emma Shirley, the beloved wife of Mr. A. B. Shirley. In her death a great loan has been sus tained, not only by her family, but the Woman's .Mission Society and the community, but the Baptist Church has lost a faithful member, one who, in her daily life, adorned tho doctrine of our Saviour. As a member she was exceptionally diligent, continuing faithful to her work until stricken down. Her life was indeed a noble one. She bore with all patience her ailliction. never murmuring, and an unwavering faith in the Son of God and His promises truly robbed" death of its sting and the grave of-its victory. Whereas, it has pleased God in Hib infinite wisdom to remove from our midst an esteemed member. 1 here fore, he it . Resolved, That we bear testimony to her faithfulness as a member of our Society, to her zeal * >r the welfare of the Church and to her Christian char ity. That we extend onr heartfelt sympa thy to the bereaved family in the hour of their affliction. That these resolutions be entered in onr minutes and be published in the Baptist Courier and Tho Intelligencer, and that a copy be sent to the family of our deceased fellow member.
