"Obituary from SW Advocate
"At her residence of Typhod (sic) fever on the morning of the 28th Nov. MRS. ELIZABETH SPOTTS, wife of Chapman
A. Spotts, Esq. Aged 36 years. After a protracted illness the issue of which has been but too plainly foreseen by her
friends, Mrs. Spotts has left us regretted and beloved by all classes of the community.
"A person of rare excellence, having passed from our midst, it is right that we should detain our thoughts a little in the
vicinity of this sorrowful event. A laudable curiosity is excited among those who never had the pleasure of their
acquaintance, to know something of the closing scene, as well as personal history of such an individual. While
others, who have known her face to face, are just unwilling that so signal a display of Christian triumph, should pass
away without some fit memorial.
"Mrs. Spotts was a native of this county, born on Bluestone in the year 1910, where her bereaved father Mr. Howard
Bane now resides. Here by parents of staid habits and severe integrity, were engrafted on her infant mind, those
sweet lessons of morality, the substrata of that soul-elevating piety, which in after years revealed itself in her
character; and shone, "As the bright star that gilds the brow of ev'n."
"Sometime during the Summer of 1840 it was her fate to bow to a severe dispensation of providence. She had
been married scarcely two short months to her first husband, Mr. James Whitman, when the angel of death came
and folded him gently in his dark wings, and shut out the sorrows of earth forever. Oh what a calamity was this! God
had smitten her, but the stroke that blasted, consecrated her! For amid the gloom of affliction and sorrow she was
enable with the eye of faith, to behold "the lamb of God, that taketh away the sins of the world." Her conversion was
bright and henceforth her hopes were firmly fixed upon a blissful immortality beyond the grave. She became a
member of the Methodist church, and by her daily walk and conversation, it was manifest that she had reference to
her recompense of reward. Her religion was no dire fatalist-no gloom reservoir of morbid and unhappy feelings,
turned heavenward in the last extremity for comfort, but a meek and angelic presence in the chamber of earth,
which beautifies and yet redeems and restores by its very gentleness, righting all it wrongs, curing all its evils, and
wiping away all its tears.
"In her social intercourse, she was a fine specimen of a pure warm heart, with all the unsophisticated simplicity
and truthfulness of nature. Kind, affectionate and obliging, the wished for favour was never denied but yielded with
no air of angelic cheerfulness, that gave more pleasure that the service itself. There is a beauty in generous
actions, that charms and captivates the soul, a sweetness like that immortal love, whence it flows, shall outlive the
ravages of time.
"During her illness, she frequently spoke of the uncertainty of her recovery; assuring her friends at the same time
that if it was- - - - - - -(part of obituary cut off)- - - - - - - fell into a deep sleep, which lasted some hours, from which,
she awake perfectly rational, and requested those near, to arrange her pillows; this done to her satisfaction, she
quietly remarked, you may tell them all to come in now, I will soon be gone. After remaining perfectly still for a
brief space, and breathing hurriedly shoe slowly raised he emaciated arms, and broke forth with this
exclamation: "oh! oh! glory! honor! praise and salvation be to my Lord and redeemer!".
"These were her last words. Presenting to the church on earth, one more trophy of the immortality of the Christian
religion, and the triumphs of the gospel. Arrive on the frontier between life and life, with Jordans dark billows
rolling at her feet, it is wonderful that she broke forth into ecstasies of joy at the rapturous sight which Moses saw.
"Sweet fields beyond the swelling flood, All dressed in living green" Is it wonderful, that she smiling bid adieu to
this sin-sick clime-these causes of woe, and exulting set foot upon that peaceful shore, where there shall be no
more sickness, sorrow, pain nor death, where Enduring Spring abides And never withering glower."
P.F."
