died Sunday, Nov. 14, 1926, age 13 years, from complications of whooping cough, pneumonia and colitis. Just in the bloom of youth, when the joys of life seem to multiply so rapidly, alas! came the grim reaper, Death, who is no respecter of person. He leaves father, mother, two sisters, eight brothers, graadmotber, and a host of relatives. And to add sadness to sorrow, the father and five of the children are confined to their beds. May the Lord and people remember this home in a substantial manner. Remains of the deceased were interred in Grace Cemetery the following day. Services were conducted by Dr. L. O. Leavell of Ripley.
