  <p>Information: THE REAPER&#39;S HARVEST - Sallie Crum King, daughter of Martin Crum, deceased, was born October 10th, 1866 in Jackson County, W. Va.  She was happily converted to God in her 17th year under the ministry of Rev. J. W. Lambert, who was then her pastor, and Rev. John F. Medley, who was then Presiding Elder of the Parkersburg District, in a meeting which they held at Antioch Church near her father&#39;s home.  She united with the M.E. church, south, and lived a faithful consistent christian life until the 2nd day of June 1911, when her spirit was released from the suffering body, and went home to the God who gave it.  She was married to William M. King, August 22, 1886 and to this union there was born three children, two of whom survive her, the other having died in infancy.  Her age was 44 years, 7 months and 22 days.  She dearly loved her husband and children and lived for them, and they ""arise up and call her blessed; her husband also; and he praiseth her.""  She was the most perfect example of patience and submission to the divine will, that was ever witnessed in that part of the country.  It was my privilege to have been her pastor for two years, and I never knew a more loyal and devoted wife, mother and church member in my life.  She made all arrangements for her funeral and burial, and every request she made was granted and all her plans were carried out.  After an appropriate memorial service held in the Antioch church, where she was born into the kingdom of grace, we laid her frail body to rest in the Antioch cemetery, from whence it shall arise at the sound of the trump to meet the Lord in the air.  The high esteem in which she was held was evident from the profuse floral offerings, and the large concourse of friends that followed her remains to their last resting place.  Her devoted husband, and loving daughter, Nellie, and son, Harry, did all they could to alleviate her suffering, and prolong her life, and make it as comfortable and happy as human hands and hearts could do.  Her life was a success, her death was triumphiant.  May her family, and all who knew her, strive to emulate her noble life.   H. T. Watts</p>
