| Death has again visited us and taken from our midst our loved friend and relative, Aunt Louie Calton. Always striving to make those around her happy, never thinking of herself, but always of others, ready at all time to lend a helping hand to those in trouble and distress, she will be sadly missed, not only by her loved ones at home but by many kind friends who knew her only to love her. It is with sad and aching hearts we give her up yet with joy we look forward to the coming day when the golden chain of friendship dropped here will again be untied in a world more fair, where sickness and sorrow never come and parting is not known. Mrs. L. N. Pannell *** Alva Hannahs, son of B. F. and Laura Hannahs, died Oct 13, after an illness of nearly seven weeks. He like other young men, had thought he must go west. About the first of August he went to the Nation and was gone for four or five weeks. To the surprise of his father and mother he came home sick and took his bed from which he never was up till the Master called him home. He endured his suffering with great patience. When asked how he was getting along, would say, "Very well". He had never been a member of any church, in fact had not expressed himself publicly on this subject, for at the youthful age of eighteen had thought that was time enough yet. He was a kind boy, a good neighbor and will be missed at home and in the neighborhood. Being rather a timid boy, he was never in trouble with his neighbors. He spoke some words of comfort during his sickness that left his loved ones to hope to see him again in that bright home above where little brother had gone years ago. J. W. Ennes. |
