While yet a girl in her Pa. home, she came into the kingdom of Christ and identified herself with the United Presbyterian Church of that place, where her membership has since remained. She realized in her final sickness, that her departure was at hand, but she passed away without fear, offering unto God her prayer, and assuring the sorrowing friends that all was well with her soul.
