The LaFayette Sun October 21, 1896
 
In Memory of Mattie Bobbie Wilson.
	On October 1st, 1896, the reaper Death, visited the happy home of Mr. 
and Mrs. Hooker Wilson and plucked the sweetest bud, the little darling and pet 
of the household, sweet little Bobbie, who was not quite two years old. Let 
us remember that she is only transplanted from earth to heaven where she will 
sing praises forever more, and will always be beckoning to the loved ones left 
behind to meet her on the other short where all is peace and love. Father, 
mother, brothers and sisters you will never hear the patter of her little feet, 
nor the music of her sweet voice more on earth, but remember she is done with 
the toils and trials of this sinful world, and is at rest in the bosom of the 
Savior who only lent her to you to gladden your hearts for a short while. None 
but you can ever know how much little Bobbie will be missed, but there is a 
Comforter, if you will but seek him and ask Him for His tender mercy. He will 
heal your wounded hearts. She suffered greatly for three days with membranous 
croup. Everything that loving hands could do was done, but God thought best to 
take her to Himself. She was too beautiful and lovely to stay longer on this 
earth.
		“Leaves have their time to fall,
		And flowers to whither at the North wind’s breath,
		And stars to set – but all,
		Thou hast all seasons for thine own,
		O, Death.”
			L. B. D. ,  Chapel Hill, Ala.
