MRS. JOHN MACIVER, SCORRAIG, LOCHBROOM.
IT is with sincere regret we have to record the death of Mrs. John Maciver, Scorraig. Briefly described, she was of a meek and quiet spirit; given to hospitality; a benefactress to the needy—her left hand knowing not what her right hand did; deeply interested in the welfare of others, and a humble and unassuming Christian. She had been in failing health for some time. Latterly, she suffered great pain, which she bore patiently. The words, “for the sake of Thy grace,” and “all my desire is before Thee,” were frequently heard in her pleadings with the Lord. She longed to depart. On the 25th day of August, she was delivered from all “sorrow, crying, and pain,” and entered into the haven of Rest—Eternal Rest. Her mortal remains were interred by sorrowing friends in Dundonnell Cemetery, there to await the resurrection of the just, to whom Christ will say, “Come, ye blessed of my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world.”
We express the mind of a wide circle of friends when we desire that the Father of mercies and the God of all comfort would console her devoted and worthy husband, and affectionate family and relatives. A. S.
