In Loving Memory.
i Of our dear grand mother.
Mrs. Ellen Hays, Coffee, who
departed this life July 2 1917,
1 age 82 years, 2 months and one
day. Her remains were laid to
rest in Montezuma cemetery,
Rev. S. A. Hearn conducting
the funeral services, assisted by
Rev. J. R. Conger. Grand mo
ther joined the Methodist
church while quite young and
lived a consistent member un
til death. She was, before her
marriage, Miss Ellen Hocken
hull.
She was born at Stockford,
England, on May 1, 1835, and
came to America at the age of
six years. She landed at Rose’s
Landing and from there came
to Frogtown (known as High
tower, Ga., now) in an ox cart
for there were not many wag
ons in those days. On July 2nd,
1856 she was married to W. S.
Hays at Dawsonville, Ga. 11
children were born to their un
ion, four of them passed away
some years ago. Grand father
died Dec. 6, 1870.
Grandmother lived a widow
for a number of years and then
she was married to S. T. Coffee.
He died in 1909. Sice then she
lived with her daughter, Mrs.
L,. F. Hill. She leaves 6 daugh
ters, one son, 3 sisters, and a
host of other relatives and
friends to mourn her departure
Now by nature our hearts are
wrung with sorrow at the loss
of a loved one but we ought to
rejoice at the departing of a
child of God, for God gave His
only begotten Son that whoso
ever believeth in Him might
not perish but have everlasting
life.
Farewell, dear grand mother
sweet thy rest, weary with yrs
and worn with pain; Tis ours
to miss thee all our years and
tender memories of thee keep.
Oh, how sad it was to pass a
round her casket and take the
last view of her sweet face here
on eaith. Oh, how it grieves
our hearts to think we can nev
er see her on earth again, but
what a blessed thought that we
can join her in our Father’s
home on high, to take the part
ing hand no more.
Dear grand mother has paid
the debt we will have to pay
sooner or later. Only a short
time before she died she called
all of her chidren by their name
She said that it would be sweet
for all her descendants to be
with her in her last moments
of life, but that could not be for
some lived so far away, but it
was sweet enough as it w r as.
How we miss her in our homes,
no grand mother to come to see
us now. We know not how
dear our loved ones are until
they are taken from us. Since
grand mother is gone there is
a vacant seat in each of the chil
drens’ homes that can never be
filled, a loving voice is hushed
to be heard no more. Dear aunt
I know r your home is so lonely
since dear grand mother is gone
for a shadow o’er life is cast,
the voice you loved so dear is
hushed and still, and thy old
and innocent brow’ is resting,
death’s cold chill. Thy hands
are clasped upon thy breast,
we have kissed thy loving brow
and in our aching hearts we
know we have no dear mother
now. Weep not dear ones for
grand mother but rejoice as the
angeis of heaven rejoiced when
dear mother ccme to die no
moremore, but Ibe forever in
a home not made with hands.
Blessed be the tie that binds
and the faith and hope that is
ffffffffffffff
AMERICAN FARMER PATRI9TIC
mm SUPPLIES AND MONEY
Frtw wil! question the patriotism cf
the American farmer.
If there is any man in whom the love
of horns, the love of liberty, and the
love cf i -r. Impendence is Thoroughly
grounded, it s the American farmer.
Natural.’)', therefore, he is the one
man mere : ’an any other, who will
st?r,d firn \j behind his Government
in tvaking the world sa*s for Democ
racy.
The farmer is doing, and will con
tinue to do, all in his power in the
matte" cf the production of foods to
cur-port our people at home, our boys
in the trenches ana cur ai'-’.eo.
But it la as necessary to finance lib
erty as it : c to fight for it, or to feed
those who right.
Ceecusc oil of this is true and be
cause he can afford it on account of
the prices lie is receiving for his prod
ucts, the farmer should be one of the
nort eager purchasers of Liberty
Bonds.
He should be willing and glad to
chare a part of his profits In support
of his government Ift 4h® prosecution

leading us on by the way of the
cross.
Yes, we loved dear mother,
but angels loved her more and
called her tothat shining shore
where she will suffer no more,
Weep not that her toils are o
ver for dear grand mother is
wearing a crown of righteous
ness, God grant that we may
rest as calmly as she when our
work like hers is done. Weep
not dear children tho’ I leave
you,dry your tears and cease to
sigh; we will meet and love
each other in the fadeless bye
and bye.
Peacefid be thv silent slum
ber in the grave so low, thou no
more will join our number, noi
more our sorrows know. Yet
again we hope to meet thee
when the day of life is fled and
in heaven with joy to greet thee
where no farewell tears are
shed. Call not back the dear
departed, anchored safe where
storms are o’er, on the border
land we left her, soon to meet
to part no more. When we leave
this world of care we shall find
our missing grand mother in
our father’s mansion fair. Tho'
sorrowful tears must fall and
the heart to its depths be riven,
with storms and tempests we
need them all to render us fit
for heaven.
Written by her loving grand
daughter,
Lizzie Cox.
