Mrs. Link was a woman of noble Christian character, a member of. the First Presbyterian church. She was ever abundant in good works. Her activities were given to caring for the poor. She was chairman of the relief committee of the Presbyterian church for years, and o ten labored in this department of the church work, far beyond her strength. One of her last acts of charity was to place in the hands of Dr. Hindman, her pastor, a generous contribution to save the lives of the dying of India. Many a disheartened, despondent woman and helpless child will, for years to come, reverence her name and call her blessed.
