Obituary for Abigail Duffy:
On the 17th of February, 1890, after a severe illness, Abbie, wife of Eli Clay, near Grelton, Ohio, aged 32 years, 7 months and 20 days.
She was a hard worker and a good manager in her home duties. She leaves a husband and two children, father and mother, brother and sisters to mourn her loss. May God be with them in their afflictions and comfort their hearts in this.
'Tis finished, the conflict is past,
The Heaven born spirit has fled,
Her wish is accomplished at last,
And now she's entombed with the dead.
No sickness, or sorrow, or pain,
Shall ever disquiet her now,
For death to her spirit was gain,
Since Christ was her life here below.
Her soul has now taken its flight,
To mansions of glory above,
To mingle with angels of light,
And dwell in the Kingdom of Love.
