The subject of this sketch was born and raised in ihe upper section of Newberry county. After she grew up she became the wife of John W. Scott who settled near her old home. This union prov.ed to be a happy one, and for a period of thirty-five years or more they lived together sharing in confidence and love the common experience of life. Her disease known at first to be a bad one made steady progress and in the latter months of her life develop ed into conditions which brough' about much extreme suffering. Ma lignant as the disease was and great as was her suffering yet she lived for a considerable time, until finally on the morning of 1he 22nd of June sur rounded by her husband, children and friends she passed away. Of the deceased much could be written. She possessed moral and social gifts of a high order. As a Christian 'her faith was steady and her convictions of du ty were consistent with her profession. In the home life her virtues shone out in queenly splendor. Warm and sympathetic in her nature and gener Ots almost to a fault, there she drew around 'her a large number of admir ing and loving friends. Doubtless the forces of influence which went out from her home life will gather momentum as time advances, and will widen and widen until they break inl upon the eternal shore. She is gone and the vacancy in the home is a sad one. She will be miss ed by many but she leaves behind her the legacy of a Christian life and an! example worthy to be followed. May the memory of her life cheer ad( comfort the bereft husband and children, and may they- all he gathered at last in the happy reunion in the great beyond. A Friend.
