Brattin after which the remains were laid to rest in the Huff cemetery. The sympathy of the whole community is with family in their sad bereavement. *** Died, Friday, Sept. 10, at 4:45 p.m. Jake Burke, after many years of toll and suffering. He leaves a wife and two children to mourn his loss besides a host of friends. He was interred at the Cargile Grave Yard, Saturday evening after a short talk at the house by Rev. Hall. *** Mrs. B. F. Walker and family, Mrs. J. M. Waddell and family, and Mrs. Pease gathered together and arranged to surprise Auntie Moffatt and family Monday evening with a supper, it being Auntie Moffatt's sixty-seventh birthday. With well-filled baskets and happy faces they drove up about 5 o'clock to their residence and it was a quite enjoyable surprise. After plenty to eat and drink they all retuned home happy. |
