[email protected] March 9, 1882 Lawrenceburg Press Julia A. Darling Mrs. Julia A. Darling died, at her home near Manchester Station, Julia A. Darling, widow of the late Thomas J. Darling aged 73 years. She was born in Kentucky in 1808, came to this state with her parents Robert and Nancy Martin, was married to Thomas Darling in March, 1829. She had wonderful home and was surrounded by the comforts of life. For many years she had been an invalid, watched and cared for by her children and friends until on tuesday the 14th ult. death came and released her from suffering which she had borne so patiently and so long. She talked to her children about the heavenly home that Jesus had gone to prepare for her, and when we think of mother Darling, it is pleasant for us to know that she sleeps well in the christian home of glory. The funeral took place on friday, conducted by the Rev.Benj. Plummer, assisted by Bros. Johnson and Protor. We depply sympathize with the family in this hour of their sadness
