Fell asleep in Jesus – Ellen Stice, wife of Eld. Jesse Stice, near Bible Grove, Scotland county, Mo., Oct. 18, 1876, in the sixty-seventh year of her age, after an illness of two weeks. She died as she lived – a devoted christian – loved and respected by all who knew her. She had been a member of the Christian church for over twenty-eight years. She has suffered much during the last year, though better at times until her last illness, which soon carried her away to receive the reward of the just. Our loss is Heaven’s gain.
“Tossed no more on life’s rough billow,
All the storms of sorrow fled.
Death has found a quiet pillow
For the humble christian’s head;
Peaceful slumbers
Guarding now her lovely head.”
Memphis, Missouri, Memphis Reveille, 26 Oct 1876, p. 3, col. 3
