IN MEMORIAM.
KATE TEAM FLOWERS, wife of A. Gilbert
Flowers, and youngest child of me late Capt
Adam aod Jane E Team, was born at "The
Hermitage" near ! amden, S C, Nov. 17th,
1872, and died at Sumter, S. C , Oct. 14tb,
1S00.
Survived by her husband, Mr. A. Gilbert
Ficwere, her mother, Mrs. Jane E. Team ;
also, by two full sisters, Mrs. Jas. M. Reams
and Mrs Waiter V. Cautben, and a half-sis
j ter, Mrs. T. F. Boozer, and a half brother,
Mr. Jno. J. Team, the earthly career of Kate
i Flowers is ended. In early life, under the
j ministry of Rer Henry M. Mood, she united
i with the Methodist Episcopal Church, South,
i On Apni 28th, 1S92, at thc borne of ber
! mother,*near Rembert, S. C , she became the
wife of A. Gilbert Flowers, of Sumter, S. C.
.For more than eight years ber life has been
knowe and read of all in the city where she
died.
j Lovely in person, pure in character, sincere
j in friendship, gentle in nature, seif-sacrifictog
in spirit and faithful in duty, Kate Flowers
wa3 the embodimect of a true and beautiful
Christian womanhood Ir W?S the privilege
o? the writer to know ber intimately in the
home, in the eocial circle and in the church.
Living, she daily exemplified the power in
human life of the religion she professed
Dying, ber's was a complete and peaceful
resignation to the will of God. Among ber
last utterances was the declaration : "God is
leading me by the band."
Under the ministry of Rev. W. A. Kelly
she placed ber membership in the Magnolia
Street, M E. Church, South, of this city
Seeking for, she obtained a deepening work
of divine grace in ber heart From that
hour Kate Flowers was wholly Christ's. Soe
rose above mere denominational lines, and,
1 wherever opportunity presented itself, or
wherever duty called, she worked and loved
and sacrificed, under the mighty inspiration, j
that *11 mankisd were tbe children cf a com- ?
mon Father.
By nature, qualified to reign as a queen in
society, Kate Flowars disdained tbe allure?
ments of this world, and counted teem bu;
loss for the excellency cf tbe knowledge of
Jesus Christ. It wss in eye3 of tbes? blinded
by sin that she was beautiful, in tbe fiparts
and homes cf the poor, the sufi.-.'iing and the
sorrowing that she was loved ; iu the hvts j
of the sinlui cr>d outcast that e':e reigiisd as i
a queen of righteousness. ID tbe memory of j
those who knew ber cest and loved her mo3t, j
ber epitaph shall ever be "She weet about j
doing good "
To those who witnessed her last hour3 on |
earth no morbid fe*rs of death c*n com??, for j
she ;'fell cn sleep" m tee perfect insurance j
that sbe wouid e waken in the image and ?ike? j
ness of Him unto ?bom she had committed i
her body and spirit. To them, see is r.ot j
dead, but alive fur evermore.
"Calm on the bo.=om of thy God.
Fair spirit, rr-st thee now ?
E'en wbJie with us toy footsteps trod,
His s ui was on *.hy brow."
"Lone are thc paths, aid sud the bower?,
Whence thy meek smile is gur.e ;
But 0, a brighter home than ours.
In beaven is new thu.e owe."
Wr deck-thy form of earth and clay,
With fijwers of tenderest love ;
BUT, clad io robes of life divine,
Thy spirit is now above.
