IN MEMORY OF MRS. M. O. FREEMAN

She was born at Logan, Cullman county, Ala., but at an early age removed 
with her parents to Cleburne county, where she was reared and spent 
practically all of her childhood and early womanhood. At the time of her 
death she was 38 years, six months and three days old. She was in the 
Georgia Baptist hospital, Atlanta, at the time of her passing.

During the four long months of intense suffering and pain she was never 
heard to complain or murmur, for she bore her afflictions most bravely. What 
she suffered, no one knows, but through it all she fought bravely and tried 
very hard to regain her health; but God knew best. On May 2, 1935, he said 
"you have suffered enough" and sent the Death Angel to relieve her of 
earthly pain and suffering forever. Death was a sweet relief. Her family was 
called to her bedside at the hospital on April 27th where they remained 
until death came to her.

She was a devoted christian, having joined the Missionary Baptist church in 
early girlhood and she lived a true christian life. At the time of her death 
she was a member of Central Presbyterian church in Atlanta, Ga.

She was a devoted wife and mother; a loving daughter and dear sister. She 
leaves to mourn her passing, her husband M. O. Freeman, a son Milton O. 
Freeman Jr.; her parents Mr. and Mrs. W.O. Mayfield, two sisters, Rosa 
Mayfield and Mrs. C. E. Gable, five brothers, Lonnie, Henry, Frank, Joe and 
Ray Mayfield and a host of other relatives. She was preceded to the grave by 
a daughter Marglene who died in her infancy. Written by one who loved her 
dearly.
