MRS. E. F. BONE DIED FRIDAY.

Mrs. E. F. Bone, wife of Mr. E. F. Bone and daughter of Mr. and Mrs. W. R. Taunton, died at her home last Friday, from typhoid fever, her remains were interred at Mt. Pisgah Saturday afternoon, Rev. M. T. Gaultney conducting the funeral service.

All possible that medical skill and trained nursing could do, was done to save the life of this devoted wife and tender mother but to no avail. Death came, and the sweet spirit went home to God, leaving seven motherless children and a heart crushed husband to mourn their irreparable loss.

The permissable dispensations of God's providence are not now understood. “We now see through a glass darkly, but then face to face, and we shall know, even as we are known.” Then, and not until then will we know and understand why God in his mercy and infinite wisdom permitted this loving, devoted mother and faithful, loyal wife to be taken away from the home she loved so well.
