DEATHS' DOINGS.
At 3 o'clock Tuesiiav morning, of a
complication of diseases, the pnmrr
trouble of which was diarrhea, Mrs. Vir- j
ginia Trueheart Bourne passed from this
to a better world, after an illnes3 of near- j
ly two moths. During her long con-
iiuement and intense suffering Mrs.
Bourne never murmured, but bore all
with a christian fortitude which plainly
showed her willingness to bow at His
command. The deceased was the loving
wife of Dr. M. L. Bourne and ho
with three children. Julian. Trueheart
nd Virginia now feel keenly tho loss of
model wife and a sainted mother. Mrs.
Bourne was Miss Virginia Trueheart and
iu her youth was as beautiful of face as
she is known to have been of disposition
nud character. Sho was reared in Princ"
Edward county, Va., and until her marriage
to Dr. Bourne, 20 years ago, lived
there. At an eaily ago sho give her
heart to God and has since- been a devout
member of the Presbyterian church,
always tho in doing those
things that were right in iho eyes of
.God. During Mrs. Bourne's remain at
this place no one has done more for the
church, for the Sunday school and for
missionary causes than she and truly
her church has lost a valuable member
her death. It will be remembered
that she was one of tho prime originators
of the MeEIrov Gleaners and for
years was manager of them and it will
also be remembered that no member of
that organization did more for its furtherance
than she. Wo deeply sympathize
with the borrowing ones in their
great grief, but triut that they will find
cousolation in the fact that their loss is
her gain and that the Lord giveth and
tho Lord taketh away; blessed be the
name of the Lord. After services at the
residence by Rev. Ben Helm, at three
o'clock, Wednesday afternoon, many of
her friends followed her remains to its
last resting place in Buffalo cemetery.
