At her home near Orange, July 12, 1893, Louisa C. Baker, wife of J.N. Baker, died.
She was the daughter of Solomon Spraker. She had been a sufferer for several months from what was pronounced a cancer of the breast. Her suffering was great; and during the last few weeks of her life, it seemed as if she suffered untold agony. But she bore it all with a patience which was indeed remarkable, until at last the poor frail body could endure it no longer and God said "It is enough, come up higher". She was a woman loved and respected by all who knew her; a member of the M.E. Church and ever lived as a consistent Christian, a kind neighbor, a loving companion, and a tender mother, ever trying to influence all for right. She leaves a husband and five children, a father and two sisters, besides many other relatives and friends to mourn her loss. Her remains were interred in the Wesley Chapel Cemetery. Rev. Osborn delivered a beautiful and touching discourse from the subject: "Blessed are the dead, who die in the Lord."
