OBITUARY.

"Entered into rest" at Jackson, Miss., May 5th, 1880, MRS. ANNA M., widow of the late Jno. T. Hull, in her 59th year. She was born in Monticello, Lawrence county, August 21st, 1821, but spent the last forty years of her life in this city and vicinity, where she was well known to many of the old citizens, and we may truly say she passed from the cradle to the grave beloved by all who knew her; of a quiet and shrinking disposition, she lived chiefly in the retirement of her home, her sympathies going out in gentle deeds to all around, and her true heart responding to the wants of the poor and suffering. The kindness and benevolence of her nature was most beautifully exemplified in her maternal care for the orphans of her family, and one of the great comforts through her long and painful illness was the constant attendance at her bedside of one whose helpless infancy had found in her a mother's tender love.
The bereaved sons have our heartfelt sympathy in the loss of such a loving and devoted mother. May her christian example be a beacon light to guide them into the path in which she walked, and finally unite them and all her loved ones in that heavenly home where she now rests with those who were awaiting her there. "Peace to thy soul" dear friend, may the beautiful flowers that were so loved in life, bloom brightly and shed their fragrance over thy grave.
