From the Christian Neighbor. Death of Mrs. Siiuford ?-The intelligence is sad, jet true, that Mrs. Roxana Louisa Shuford, wile 01 nev. i Jacob L. Shuford, of the South Carolina \ Conference, after an illness of seventeen days, died at houie, in the Rocky Mount Circuit, Chester District, March 21 18C9. Sister S. was the daughter of Jacob aud Mary Fulcnwider, and was born Nov. 15, 182o, was married to Brother Shuford Nov. 6, 1849, and from that time to the day of her death she was a faithful itinerant wife, never saying locate, but "travel on." To reuil that this devoted Christian was an affectionate mother, a kind neighbor to the poor, an ardent member of the Church, a sympathizing member of the itinerant brotherhood, and a true help-meet to ? ' ? ' . 1.1 ner nusoaua, wuuiu iu wjirj uuc unavxjuainted with her, fail to couvey a cortect idea of her excellence. Though lively end agreeable in social intercourse, yet would she not, even in jest utter an untruth. No one could leave her company without carrying away the impression that she was a sincere experiment al and generous Christian woman. The removal of such a light from the Church, oomtnuni'y and household is no ordinary loss, yet, to this every day Christian, an extaaordinary gain. Resides the smitten companion of her happy utar* ried life, she left seven children, the youngest only six weeks old. But what a rich inheritance falls to the mother less children in the godly life and tri"Umphant death of a saiutec^inother ! Of the scenes of her last hours, Brother Shuford writes : "She was perfectly sensible to the last. Site called us to her ted and gave us her dying charge; told me what to do for the children, and that I must take the Christian Xeiyhbor aud Burke's We.eV.lt/ for them; made all her arrangements as though preparing for a journey, gave directions about her bun*1; sent messages to her friends; spoke -of yourself?said you must baptize her little boy, and requested me to give you her dying farewell. Her greatest trial was to give up her babe. She said she would like to stay with us, yet felt that all was well?and died in Jesus." In darkness may light arise to the gloomshrouded honsc of our beloved brother. ( The works of the departed do follow her, aud she shall live again. An Itinerant Friend.
