OBITUARY
Sa geome m am
Death entered the home of Mr. T.
E. Little on the 3d ot Dec. 1896, and
took from him his beloved wife, Mollie.
She was fifty-six years old. She
was sick about two and one half months
with heart disease and a few days before
she did had a severe attack of Apo-
plexy. In the latter part ot her sickness
she suffered greatly. No human tongue
can express the pain she felt, but we
believe she is now resting and sleeping
in the arms of Jeaus. She united with
the church, at Piney Grove when
death. She was very prompt iu attend-
ing her meetings when heaith would
permit and was ever trying to live a
christian lite and persuading others to
do the same, especially her children. I
have heard her plead and talk to them
tellin tuem uf the besetting sins and
ihe dwu.er oc disobeying God, and
the promises he tus giver US.
She was a dear auni vi mine, and I'l]
never forget the good aavice she has
given me. I loved her next to my own
nother and its very sad to think we'll
never hear her voice, never see her smile
again, but then Ttis not so sad as if we
had no nope, for if we trust in the
Lord and kezp His commandments we
have a hepe of meeting ner where sor-
row and suffering is oTer.
She leaves a husband, five children,
and a host of relatives ard friends to
mourn their loss, but weep not deat
ones as those who have no hope, ~For
blessed are they that die in the Lord.�
Iu the cold and silent grave
They have lain her down to rest,
With the young and old and brave,
She is numbered with the blest.
"Tis sad to give thce up in death,
But not our will be done,
Cold is thy form and still thy breath,
And a victory thou hast won.
Tis sad to part with one we love,
And it almost bresks our hearts,
Bus we hope to meel Mm that world
nbove.
Where weTl! never, never par.
Weep wot, weep not dear husband,
For God has called me home,
And HeTll be calling you some day,
