She had been sick a long time with consumption. This long sickness she bore with Christian fortitude and patience, calmly waiting the master's summons to come up higher. She united with the Baptist church here when fourteen years of age, and has left behind her the record of a faithful Christian life. She was married at the age of twenty, and since has lived in Poultney or the near vicinity. On the day of her death she was conscious that she was near the close of her earthly life and bade each member of her family farewell with words of Christian counsel. The funeral services at the church Sunday, were reading of the scriptures by Rev. C. J. Wilson, prayer, by Rev. C. Granger, sermon, by Rev. D. W. Palmer, from the text, 'And the Spirit and the bride say come,' Revelations, 22-17, with the singing of appropriate hymns. Her remains were born to their last resting place by her four sons."
