    Mary Jane | wife of Elijah F Smith | died | Feb 1 1852 | ae 43 yrs.
    Affliction sore long time I bore
    Physicians' art was vain
    Till God was pleased that death should seize
    And ease me of my pain
    Farewell my husband and my children
    Farewell to all on earth
    I hope to meet you all in heaven
    Where parting is no more.
