We report the observation of a frequency ($\omega $) and temperature (T) -dependent loss peak in $\chi''$ and accompanying dispersion in $\chi'$ from microwave (2-18GHz) measurements of the complex susceptibility $\tilde{\chi}(\omega, T)=\chi'+i\chi''$ of $Sr_{14-x}Ca_{x}Cu_{24}O_{41}$. We associate this phenomenon with a rapid decrease of spin disorder and corresponding spin relaxation rate, representing a ``spin freezing transition'' accompanying charge ordering which occurs at temperatures $\sim 250K$. Our results enable direct quantitative measurements of the spin relaxation rate, and yield information on spin dynamics in these materials and the related compounds $SrCuO_{2}$ and $Sr_{2}CuO_{3}$.
