The following quote is about General R. E. Lee’s Daughter. "Growing Up in the 1850’s: The Journal of Agnes Lee," page 138. She died sixteen years after she came to Christ. Her youngest sister Mildred recorded her last words upon her dying bed, "I was doing something for Agnes … when she opened her eyes, & asked in a ringing tone, … ‘Am I dying?’ I said, ‘O Agnes, I am afraid you are—you are not afraid to die?’ ‘No,’ and she said something about ‘My Saviour,’ & ‘going to my Father,’ (meaning Papa)…. I managed to repeat the Lord’s Prayer, & she joined in at ‘Forgive us our trespasses,’ murmuring ‘Ah that’s the part!’ Then Jinnie Ritchie said, ‘would you like me to say “Rock of Ages”? She assented, & listened while those solemn words were repeated in a firm voice.” page 114. She was thirty-two when she died in 1875 and entered that land of pure delight where the King of Heaven reigns. Yes, the place where the Father of all glory gathers His children.
