She was the mother of nine living children, four of them going to the tomb, before their mother. Two daughters and three sons survive her, with her husband, Zeph%miah Franklin Hannon, to whom she was married on February 15th, 1877, and also her only and devoted sister, Miss Kate Hood. Mrs. Hannon was converted at the early age of eleven lears, under ihe preaching of Rev. C. A. Evans, joining | the Presbyterian Church In Carters ville—one among the oldest living I members of that organization 1 loyal and steadfast to her religious j duties and obligations. j Mrs. Hannon was an invalid for many years. Her suffering was great and long continued, but the closing hours were beautifully calm and peace ful. She realized that the end was near, and she knew her dear ones, and talked with them, as to her wishes and requests up to the final moment of de parture for the Spirit World. The writer has known dear Maggie from her babyhood, has been her steadfast friend for more than half a oentury, and it is a privilege to write' these parting words and bear testi mony to her excellencies af character as wife, mother, sister and friend, and of her devotion to her religious con victions. Rebecca Latimer Felton, j TRIBUTE OF RESPECT. iJrs. Susan B, Parker was born in Cherokee County, Georgia, November t, 1837, and died at'her home near White, Ga., October 13, 1917, of that wasting disease, cancer of the stomash. Sister Parker was twice left a widow to battle with the hardships' of widow hood. She was converted when but a ' little girl and joined the M. E. Church, ' *" the countv South, of old Fairview, u> -- , where she was born. To this church j she gave many years of self sacrifice . and toil to the upbuilding of the cause of Christ in that community. Her works do follow her. In the memory . of those people with whom she lived j and labored the name of Sister Parker j will always be dear because of her earnestness in her work and goodness ' to all those with whom she came in \ contact. To know her was to love her. 1 She bore her sickness with fortitude. Many will rise up in the ' resurrection morning and call her blessed. The writer visited her home several times, and especially during ' her last illness, every time to catch a brighter glimpse of the Eternal World ! by her heavenly conversation. Her ! ■whole theme was to do the will of her j L/ord and to finish her work with a 1 ‘triumphant faith and enter into the Heavenly City prepared for those who love the Lord. Just before she died she sang, ‘'l am going Home to Glory in the Good Old Fashioned Way.” Her heavenly smile assured those standing near that she was confident of the safe landing on the eternal shore. Tic funeral services were conducted at Pinelog, Ga., by the writer, assisted by Brother Barton. Many of the con gregation arose and gave testimony to the fact of her useful life, which had been a great blessing to them. Her relatives and friends can <k> nothing better than to trust in God as did this good old mother in Israel. Be faithful brothers, sifters and chil dren, and some day you will see her again.
