Nearly all the states have

A Good Will Center is owned

“Leaves lrnve Uieir time to Jail
Ant flowers to wittier at the North wind’s
breath,
And stars to set—but Thou—
Thou hast all seasons tor thine own
O Death!”
In the shadow of a night a soul
wns born into tne kingdom of
God. On Thursday night Oct. 2,
1919 at Dtinson’s hospital, La
Grange, Ga., Mrs Anna Martin
passed away after an il'ness of
several months.
All physical aid that could be
given was brought to bear, but to
no avail. We can’t understand
why she had to suffer so much
during her last days hero on
earth. Yet ‘-All things work to¬
gether for good to them that love
the Lord,’'
Her noble life stands out as a
most emphatic declaration that
she has gone to heaven—“By
their fruits je shall know them.”
She lias finished her work in
the service of her Lord and her
loved ones. Her children rise up
ant] call her blessed.
In her home is a vacant chair,
yonder a little mound, yonder a
soul redeemed in the fulness of
Hie love.
Mrs. Martin, before her mar
riuge to Mr Jasper Martin, was
Miss Anna Eliza Davis. She lias
left to mourn her loss, a husband,
| two children, five grandchildren,
two brothers and other loved
ones. Her church membership
had been with Beech Springs Bap¬
tist church for a half century
and her body was laid te rest in
the cemetery near by ; the funeral
was conducted by her pastor, Rev.
J W Smith.
“ Let not your hearts he troubled,
Dor rue, my children dear,
Life’s troubles wit.li me are over,
Over rue shed not a tear.
“Grieve not at the seperat ion
It’s a debt we all have to flay;
Remember a thousand years spent,
With God are but as a day.
NELLIE.
CARD OF THANKS.
We wish to express our heart¬
felt thanks for the many kindness¬
es and expressions of sympathy
shown us during the sickness and
death of our wife and mother, and
especially I)r. Parham for his
faithful service.
