It is a sad thing for parents to part with their dear little ones this case is peculiarly so. Satnmie was a very bright boy, and had a little twin brother equally so. They were both full of interest and promise, were always together, in the house about the yard making every thing merry with their fun, frolic aud glee.

Siler, wife of Mr. H. W. Siler and daughter of Rev. Louis Phillips.

She was converted at the age of fif teen at Fair Promise Church underthe pastorate of Rev. C. Plyler, and has since adorned her profession by a godlv and consistent life. Words can convey but a faint idea of her gentleness, purity and loveliness of character. She often, during her long illness, conversed with her friends concerning her hopes, (fears she had none) and expressed her perfect resignation to the will of Providence, saying that life had no charms, death no terrors for her.

Her only regret in dying was leaving her husband and infant chil dren. S. Willie Sutton, sou of Capt. W. S.

and Sophia Ann Byrd, was born Sept 3d 1863, died Nov. 3d, 1879. Willie was a good, obedient boy in every respect. Kind to every one, and especially so to his parents He was industrious and saving promised to be a source of great comfort to his parents, but alas, how soon bright hopes of the future are dashed by death. The Lord bless his afflicted parents.

knowledged by all who knew her. I Ulessed with wealth and social position, her influence was extensive, yet all was consecrated to the service of God. She was deeply attached to the Church of her choice, and did much to advance its interests in the section where she resided- Had been a subscriber to theN. C. Christian Advocate from the beginning of its publication to her death.

Her house was indeed a home for the homeless, and especaliy to the toil-worn itinerants. Many will, no doubt, remember her kindness and hospitality, and call her blessed. Although Sister Hunt's death was sudden, and very distressing to her children, and numerous relatives and friends, yet the)' sorrow not as those that have no hope. She, no doubt, was ready; and while they mourn their irreparable loss, she is mingling her song with the blood-washed, "who have come up out of great tri bulation, and have washed their robes and made them white in the od of the E.

Eudaily, P. C. Wilkesboro, Nov. 7th, 1879. Miss Pattie Spain, after a very short illness, died Nov.

the 5th, 1879, at the residence of her sister, Mrs. Warwick Hagelwood, in Franklin county, N. Her death was very unexpected. She attended Church at Ebenezer on Saturday in usual health, and heard the writer of these lines to her memory, preach from the "For I am now ready to be offered, and the time of my departure is at hand. I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith Henceforth there is laid up for me a crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, shall give me, at that day and not to me nly, but unto all them." also that love His appearing," and on Wednesday, just before the sun had set, she finished her course in iife and doubtless received a crown of righteousness for she had fought a good fight, commencing the bittle in her eleventh year, and had kept the faith till the victory was won.

Her dissolution was so rapid, that she gave no dying testimony, but her life speaks for itself. She was of frail body, but was strong in spirit, serving God was devoted to her Church, the M. E. Church, South, of which she was a member from childhood was liberal in its support, and earnest in her labors, having served two years as collector for the Conference fund, to promote its welfare. She was kind to her pastor, staying with his family in.

his absence, and with her two sisters, who now mourn their frequently sending to the parsonage such things as are well calculated to cheer a minister in his labors. She was a devoted sister, and a kind neighbor, many friends attended her funeral service, conducted by the writer, and sang in solemn tones "Lo! thepris'ner is released, Lightened of her fleshly load Where the weary are at rest, She is gathered into God Lo the pain of life is past, All her warfare now is o'er Death and hell behind are cast, Grief and suffering are no more." Yes, the Christian's course is run, Ended is the glorious strife Fought the fight, the work is done, Death is swallowed up of life Born by angels on their wings, Far from earth the spirit flies, Finds her God, and sits, and sings, Triumphing in Paradise." R. S. Webb. Sarah Edwards, wife of Alfred Edwards, Guilford, N.

was born in Rockingham county, N. 1861 joined the Church under Rev. Amos Weaver, at Merritts Chapel, 1825. Lived near that Church till she died, Sept. 25th, 1879.

Her religion made her a great blessing to the community for 50 years. Her noble old husband stood by her coffin and joined tho Church in which she had spent her beautiful life. A. D. Betts.

The Lord comfort her aged father. F. A. Bishop. Mary Jane Cjle, daughter of Bro.

Thomas Cole, of Orange county, N. was bom September the 4th, 1819, and died September the 11th, 1879. It seldom falls to the lot of a pastor to record the death, or pronounce the eulogy ot a lovelier saint than the subject of this notice. Born of pious parents, and brought up in the nurture and admonition of the Lord, early consecration to the service of God, followed almost as a natural consequence. Her experience of grace was clear and joyous.

She was a happy Christian, and loved her Savior with a pure heart fervently. Her life was consistent, she adorned the doctrine of Christ by a chaste walk and a godly conversation. She delighted in the services of the sanctuary; she enjoyed the worship of God in the great congregation. How often have I seen her gentle spirit nrilt and exult under the ministry ot the word It was a pleasure to preach to her. Her soul feasted on the precious things of the gospel.

Religion with her was a controlling principle. It permeated her whole being. She glorified God in her spirit and body. In all the relations of life she was faithful a dutiful child, an affectionate sister, a true friend, a sincere Christian. Her last sickness was long and rain-ful.

Her sufferings were great, her patience sublime. Week after week, day and night, until weary mouths had come and gone, she endured the mysterious and agonizing aflUctioii that terminated her mortal life, without a murmur. The grace of God -was sufficient for her in the pains and distresses of dissolving nature. The visions of faith transported her triumphant spirit beyond the bounds of time, and in the blooming prospect that opened to immortal hope, complaint was hushed in the desire to depart and bn with Christ. He death was a fitting close of a true and beautiful life.

All was well in the last hour. The Savior whom she had loved and served so faithfully, blessed her dying hour, and gave her the victory over the last enemy. She rests from her labors, and her works do follow her. "Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of his saints." This is the text from which the writer preached her funeral sermon at Pleasant Grove the fellowship of which she lived and died. May the loved ones left behind, when life's fitful fever is ovjr, hail her on on the shining shore as she has hailed loved ones gone before.
