ELIZABETH (STOUFFER) SMITH wife of Rev. W. R. Smith, died at the home of her daugher Mrs. A. Fulrath, near Mt. Carroll, IL, November 18th, 1884, aged 65 years, 1 month, and 28 days. Some four years ago she was suddenly struck down by paralysis, losing her speech and becoming a very helpless invalid, suffering greatly, but through the promised grace given her she was enabled to patiently endure her deep affliction, receiving the best of care and nursing by her near relatives. She was converted to God in early life and cast her lot with the church of the United Brethren in Christ, of which she remained a faithful, exemplary and worthy member until death. Safely she has passed the river. She leaves an aged companion, with whom she has amply shared the joys and sorrows of earth these many years, one son, and four daughters to mourn her departure from earth. - John J. Margileth.3
