Wednesday June 20, 1887, sister M. J. Carl wife of Joseph Carl, departed this life at her home, near Hillsboro, Tenn., in the 54th year of her age. With her husband she was immersed Sept. 9, 1865, both uniting with the Lieper's Fork congregation, of which she was one of the purest, best and most devoted members.
With trusting confidence in Christ, she bravely fought the battle of life and now "rest from her labors; for blessed are the dead which die in the Lord from henceforth; yea saith the spirit, that they may rest from their labors and their works do follow them. - Rev. xiv:13. She left a large intelligent, Christian family, over whom she had watched with a mother's tender, loving care. We extend to the bereaved husband and family our warmest, Christian love and sympathy. We would not say "sorrow not," for truly you have lost your best earthly friend. Yet we say, sorrow not even as other which have no hope. 1 Thess. iv:13, and our prayer is that when your summons come to join the mighty host that is constantly moving on to that mysterious realm where each shall take his chamber in the silent halls of death you like her may be ready. Her funeral services were held in the church at Leiper's Fork in the presence of one of the largest congregations of sympathizing friends that ever assembled there to "weep with those that weep."
