Aged Mother
Passses Away
On Jan. 4th, tlie death Angel
came and bore ray the sweet]
spirit of our friend and sister, 1
; Mrs. Sallie W hipple. For 27 j
!years she has been in our midst.!
She was born in ilkinson!
I County, Nov .30th, 1831. She
was the daughter of Tomas and
Hoi lorn : n.
About 30 years ago she united
| with the Mt, Olive Baptist
; church in W iibinson county,
i She was married to S. B. W'hip
' pie Feb, 19, 1839. Beside 1 her
husband eight manly sons sur-
I vive her, namely: Judge U. V.
1 W hippie, Cordele, Ga. - Dr. W.
if. Whipple, Macon, Ga,; A. I*.
! Whipple, Dudley, Ga ; C. T.
i Whipple, Jacksonville, Ha.; Cr.
JO. J. Whipple, Uvalda, Ga.;
(Col. L. A. Whipple, Hawkinsvil
; le, Ga.; and Dr. R. L. and S. T.
j Whipple, of < 'ochran.
T wo sisters and one half sister
Mr. Dr. Green, of Dublin, Ga.;
! Mrs. Kemp, Macon; and Mrs.
Rufus Hall, Hawkinsville; and
two brothers an! cny half
! brothers, J. T. and T. J. Ho!I -
! mon, of Wilkinson Co., and M.
jS. Hollomon, Hattiesburg, Miss.
For many months our loved
friend has been confined to her
rr. m how vv« missed her and
hoped Lo have tier with us again.
She was modest, and while she
had strong convictions did not
! force them upon others.
She was a close student of the
Bible and loved to be with thi se
who talked of Cod’s great
works. Site was broad-minded
and loved to worship in other
churches.
She so often spoke of the free
dom of religion in country
churches. In all things she
bowed to the will cf our Heaven
ly Father and walked softly be
fore Him.
Her long years of steadfast
devotion to husdand and child"
ran demonstrated the purity of
her private life. Hers was a life
of devotion to every interest of
the family circle. As a wife she
was a true help-meet. It can
truly be said of her, “Her child
ren rise up and call her blessed,
her husband also and he praiseth
her.’’ Her home life was a
benediction to her loved ones,
which will sustain, encourage
and bless them in every way of
life. She was a life o' many deeds
of kindness. It was truly well
spent and when the summons
game the “Pc rly Cates” SAvung
wide and in gladness her sweet
spirit sang:
“Joy, joy forever my task is
done,
Life’s trials are past and Heaven
is won.”
