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.

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.

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.
