G. and Sister Henrietta Higgins. She was born December 31, 1865, and died July 8, 1887. She joined the (Primitive Baptist) Church of Christ at Mount Hickory, Chambers County, Ala., when but a girl, and lived a devoted Christian life without a spot upon her Christian character. She lived and died firm in the faith of Jesus. She bore her severe sickness of ten days without a murmur, and fell asleep perfectly happy in the arms of her blessed Jesus. Her husband (Mr. Tatum) who lived with her, and his parents and their family, who lived near her during the last three years of their married life, are almost silent for want to language to express their tenderness and high esteem for one they regarded as being so perfect. Her father's family with many friends and relatives do mourn our loss, yet rejoice in the pleasing view of meeting her on high. She leaves two little children for which we pray. - J. T. Satterwhite.
