It is with sadness of my heart that I will try to write a short sketch of the life of Sister Ellen Gibson. She was the daughter of H. C. Slone and Martha Slone. She was born April 21, 1875. She was married to Hiram C. Gibson and she became the mother of 5 children, 3 girls and two boys all living except J. C. She belonged to the Old Regular Baptist Church for several years. She by some means unknown to us, was burned in her house. Although she was burned in her house we believe that fire has no more power over her. I believe her last enemy was death so today I feel she is resting with the Saints of God, never to suffer any more and her seat along with many others are vacant in the Old Caney Fork Church and we certainly miss them. I want to say to her children to make piece with God if you expect to live with her again. Ellen seemed almost like a mother to me. I certainly loved her and hope to see her again and never to part any more.
