Alexander City Outlook
It is with a sad heart I try to write of the death of my uncle. Uncle Henry was 
borned May 6, 1854. He leaves to mourn his loss a good wife, fourteen children, 
a host of relatives and friends. He joined the Methodist Church early in life, 
lie had been in. declining health or many years, but bore his suffering 
patiently until the end came, lie always enjoyed talking of the wonderful power 
of God. His death was not a shock as his health had been bad for a long time. 
How sad their home will be. The Lord giveth and the Lord taketh away. Blessed be 
the name of the Lord. He has paid a debt we must all pay some time. He said he 
was ready to go. He knew that he could not stay on this earth long. We believe 
he is now at rest where the pains of the body never come and where sorrows are 
not known. His place in the home can never filled. Let us live so we will be 
prepared to meet him when our time comes to cross over the river of death. To 
know him was to love him. He was always kind to even one. He was laid to rest in 
Bethany cemetery Monday to await the morning of the resurrection. Rev. Paul 
Jones and Rev. Henry Tapley officiating. Service Funeral Home in charge. 
Everything was done that loving hands could do but none could stay the cold hand 
of death. Mav we all be prepared to answer the great roll call as we believe 
Uncle Henry was May God bless the bereaved family is my prayers. 
A Niece. IRENA MAE HAWTHORNE
