75th year to come and spend a little time with us in July 1885. The day
she was to come she was taken ill. Ann Morris (whose home was at
Barrowden and was in service in Nottingham) with whom she was to have
come, brought us word of her sudden dangerous illness. I started
immediately I heard. I arrived just in time to clasp her hand, and hear
her last calm words before she fell asleep in Jesus. July 22nd 1885. She
was to me a dear loving sister. At her funeral, us two aged brothers,
her husband, and a large number of nephews and nieces, and circle of
friends mourned her loss, giving evidence of their attachment to her,
and in appreciation of the excellence of her character. “Blessed are the
dead that die in the Lord”. |
