Death of Catherine Bivins -- 1888

maryachtrh — 2010-04-21 01:44:41Z

Taken from the Cherokee Advocate, Oklahoma, 5 September 1888

Bivind - On August 11, after a protracted illness of consumption, Catherine, wife of W. L. Bivins, on Double Creek, Bartlesville charge, Indian Mission, aged forty-nine years.

Sister Bivins was a Cherokee, and joined the M. E. Church in the summer of 1886, under the pastorate care of Rev. J. Faulk, who also conducted the funeral services. She lived a consistent Christian life, and tried to give a shout of victory while crossing the river, but was unable to speak aloud. On the night previous to her death, she overheard friends speaking about watchers, when she told them that they need not trouble themselves about that, as she would be in heaven before they were needed. he leaves three children to the care of a bereaved husband.
