The Spinster Club was most
delightfully entertained Saturday
afternoon, March 7th, by Miss
Louise Riley at her pretty home
on Maine street.
It was the first meeting the
Club had held since the reorgani

that it was an afternoon of un
bounded pleasure.
Miss Louise is an ideal hostess,
and we all hope that it may be
our good fortune to meet at this
lovely home and enjoy its hospi

Hoosiers Vs. Stumpsuckers.

be played next Saturday afternoon

the victory.

Early Orange Sorghum
Houston-raised Early. Orange
Seed
Nelson was translated. After years
of feeble health the wearied body
went to its eternal rest. The
tender ministrations of a devo
ted husband and loving children
cheered her last hours, while gen
tle hands guarded and tear stain
ed eyes watched the mystic transi
tion ’till the portals of the Great Be
yond olosed ip the vanished soul.
A beautiful life is ended. Possessed
of all the virtuous charms that hallow
the names of wife, mother, friend,
she quiekened into vibration all the
tender chords that waken human as
sociation into tuneful psalmody. A
life keyed to the harmonies of heav
en, was in itself one grand sweet
spng.
Born in 1846, she spent the great
er part of her life in and near Perry,
among scenes and friends familiar
from childhood. Only a brief resi
denoe at Unadilla, Abbeville and near
Hawkinsville separated her from the
place of her nativity.
In 1869 she was united in marriage
to Martin J. Nelson, who survives
her after a sweet companionship of
84 years. She was the devoted mo
ther of nine ehildren, seven of whom
still live: Mrs. W. W. Howard of
Thomaston, J. J. and N. J. Nekon
of Pine View, Mrs. G. L. Stripling
of Perry, Mrs. W. D. Scott of Oor-
dele, Misses Fannie and Katie, Nel
son of Perry. Two brothers and one
sister survive her, O. J. Murray of
Snow, J. A. Murray of St. Andrews
Bay, Fla., and Mrs Carrie Fulwood
of Tifton.
Mrs. Nelson was a devoted Chris
tian, an ardent worker in the Meth
odist ohmoh, and greatly beloved by
by all who knew her. By her death
a distinct loss is sustained by her
family, her dhuroh and sooiety.
