Lizzie Toone, on the 4th instant at Plum Bayou,
Jefferson county, Ark., wife of George W. Toone, formerly of Tulip, Dallas
County, Ark,
The fatal malady was an ulcer in the stomach. Her sufferings
were long and painful; but she endured her afflictions with Christian fortitude
and resignation, and died triumphing in the faith and hope of the gospel.
Her husband and children have our sincere condolence. “We
sorrow not as those who have no hope” for ”Blessed are the dead who die in the
Lord.”
“A few more years shall
roll,
A few more seasons
come, And we shall be with those who rest,
Asleep within the
tomb.
A few more stuggles
here,
A few more partings
o’er,
A few more toils, a
few more tears,
And we shall weep no
more.”
R. M. Thrasher
Arkansas Evangel, Little Rock, Arkansas
August 30, 1883
