LONE OAK.
On Sunday night last, at the home of
her son, Mr. Jas. E. Culpepper, of Lu

by Culpepper was released from its
emaciated frame, and from the valley
of the shadow in which it so long lin
gered passed “from death into life.”
On Monday afternoon, at Prospect
ohurch, Lone Oak, funeral services
were conducted by the pastor, Rev. C.
H. Branch, assisted by Rev. Firley
Baum, of Moreland. The music was
led by Mrs. W. R. Sewell. Handsome
ferns an<l other potted plants decorated
the chancel, and in their midst was
placed the pure white casket, almost
hidden under the profusion of lovely
floral offerings that testified the love of
friends. The pallbearers were five sons
of the deceased —J. W., J. E., W. F.,
C. S, and Emmett Culpepper. The con
course of relatives and friends taxed
the capacity of the church, for Mrs.
Culpepper was loved by all who knew
her. The interment was in Prospect
cemetery, by the side of her late hus
band, who had preceded her to the bet
ter land years before, and from the
shock of whose death she had never re
covered. Surviving Mrs. Culpepper are
two daughters, Mrs. Emma Albright,
of East Point, and Mrs. M. M. Sewell,
of Lutherville; also six sons, Messrs.
John W. and C. S. Culpepper of Lone
Oak, Jas. E. Culpepper of Lutherville
W. F. Culpepper of Thurman, Marvin
Culpepper of Temple, Texas, and Em
mett Cnlpepper of Atlanta. Three sis
ters, Mrs. Milton Johnson and Mrs. J.
T. Latimer, of Lone Oak, and Mrs. J.
