WOODS, Jane - {from Pea Ridge} The black angel has halted at our little village and taken as his prize one of our worthiest and best christian women, Mrs. Jane Woods. Many relatives and friends mourn her absence, but we realize she is better off. May we so live that we will meet where there will be no sickness, death or pain.
