YARBROUGH On Thursday, Jan. 14, 1937, Mr. and Mrs. C.P. Yarbrough were called to the home of a brother J.W. Yarbrough of Lineville to the bedside of their father, G.T. Yarbrough who suffered a stroke of paralysis. He lived until Saturday morning, then the death angel came for him, bearing his spirit to a home prepared for those redeemed by the blood of christ. Mr. Yarbrough was married to Miss Jane Benefield at the age of 21; to this union were born six children, four boys, W.H. of Woodland; J.W. of Lineville; W.T. of Hobson; and C.P. of Edwardsville; two daughters, Mrs. Lela Smith of Newell; and Mrs. Lucy Ware of Hobson. He had 62 grandchildren, 31 great grandchildren and a host of other relatives and friends who mourn his going. His body was laid to rest in the cemetery at Providence church, the Rev. Charlie Heard and Rev. Monroe Yarbrough of Glenloch, Ga., officiating. He was 86 years old and had been a faithfulmember of the Baptist church for 60 years. It is sad to part with loved ones who were so dear to us in life, but death is a debt that we all must pay. I only knew Bro. Yarbrough for a short time but I found that to know him was to love him. May God bless the relatives and friends of this Brother. May you feel that your loss is Heaven's gain. I know that heaven is made brighter for you with the presence of your father there. In Luke 12:40 Jesus says " Be ye therefore ready also, for the son of man cometh at the hour when ye think not." Rev. C.E.
