On the Sabbath morning of Aug. 22d., as all nature was praising Qod and the little songsters car rolled their thanks for the blessed day ot rest the soul of Mrs. Mar garet t Patterson went to its eternal rest. For twenty years only she lived to brighten tho world. At the age of ten she join ed the Presbyterian Church at Hockey Springs. Prom a sonse of duty and of her own free will she joined the B-tptist Church at Lap ford in A UgUSt , 185)0. Her life whs a beautiful illustra tion of faith in Christ. At the age of sixteen she stood at the mar riage altar, and as a wife she sa credly fulfilled that vow. In the home happiness reigned and two bright-eyed little ones were given them. Alas! that dreaded disease, ty phoid fi ver touched tho beloved mother, her little ones are left motherless, tho fond husband bro ken-hearted. Only a few days before her death, being conscious that the tlmo of her depart tire was near at hand, she sent for her pastor and res q ups ted him to pray with her. She saw a sister-in-law weeping. She said ''don't weep for me, I am so happy, I am goiug home to Heaven to rest forever." IL r faith, patience, resignation and submission were evidences of her gracious state and of bei safety in I he Lord. Beloved by all the church and by tho whole community, she now rests from her labor. In Heaven she stands at the beautiful gate waiting and, watching for yon? meet her there. J. VV. H?tts.
