Ella, wife of Edgar Woods, was born January 9, 1965, and died at the home of her parents near Wakefield February 23, 1896, aged 31 years. At the age of sixteen she gave her heart to God and united with the M.E. church, in which she lived a faithful and consistent Christian life up to death. In a conversation with her father a few days before her death she gave expression to her faith in experimental religion, that blessed assurance imparted to all true believers by the Holy Spirit that they are the children of God. She was sick only a few day and though her suffering was intense, she bore it all with a spirit of true Christian fortitude. She leaves a husband, an infant child, parents and a sister to mourn her loss. The funeral services were conducted by Rev. Young, assisted by Revs. Peddycord and Vincent at the M.E. church.
