In Loving Memory. Of our dear father, James E. Echols, who departed this life June Ist, 1917. He was 07 years, 7 months and 25 days old, and leaves a wife and 12 children to mourn his loss. He was a true Christian and a true and loving husband, and lov ing father. He joined the church upward of forty years ago and lived a true Christian life til God said ‘come ye bless ed of my father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world. He was sick for only about three weeks and all was done for him that could be done by loving hands, and in his last breath he threw his hands up oward heaven and shouted, ‘“Glory, hallelujah, and with ,i smile on his face, we do thank God for that dying grace. Father, how, we do miss thee loving voice, and how sad it is to give him up, but God tells js that all things work togeth cr for good to those who love the Lord. And 1 will say to mother and brothers and sisters just to trust in the Lord and we will meet him someday in the sweet bye and bye where there will be no more shedding of tears. Father was so good to his hildren and always tried to jet them to do right. Our dear father from us is gone,a voice we 11 hear no more, till we meet him on the jther shore, where we will sing and praise God forevermore. ( He had a smile and a good word of advise for every one he met. Written by his heart broken son, Raleigh W. Echols. CORINTH.
