Died in Cortlandville [Cortland Co. NY] on the 30th of Oct. Mary Jane [Eldrige] aged 7 years and 5 months. she was a delight to her father and a comfort to her mother, mild in her temper and lovely in her ways. She was beloved by all who knew her and a peacemaker among her associates.
She was of a delicate constitution, yet was patient under suffering, and through her sickness, her anxious friends watched over her, neighbors lent a helping hand, but the summons had gone forth. The Lord saw fit to call her from this world of pain to that of eternal rest. While we stood around the death bed of the little sufferer, and death was feeling for her heartstrings, tearing one by one asunder, and the soul fluttering to be gone, to dwell forever with the Lord. While we mourn our loss we will remember that it is her gain. She was lovely in life and in death, there was a heavenly sweetness upon her countenance.
Sister thou art mild and lovely, / Gentle as the summer breeze, / Pleasant as the air of evening, / When it floats among the trees.
Peaceful be thy silent slumbers, / Peaceful in the grave so low, / Thous no more will join our number, / Thou no more our sorrows know.
Dearest Sister, thou hast left us / Here thy loss we deeply feel, / But 'tis God that hast bereft us, / He can all our sorrows heal.
Yet again we hope to meet thee, / When the day of life is fled, / There in heaven with joy to greet thee, / Where no farewell tear is shed.
