Mrs. Bethia Thames 



     Mrs. Bethia Thames departed this life at the home of HER SON, N. C. Thames 

at Claiborne on Thursday, November 19th, 1896 In the Eighty first year of her 

age. Mrs. Thames was for many years a devoted member of CLAIBORNE BAPTIST 

CHURCH and while the infirmities of age deprived her of attendance upon its 

service for several years prior to her death she often referred to the blessed 

privileges, and her heart was there. She laves behind her one daughter, Mrs. 

George W. Carter of Perdue Hill, and three sons, John Thames, at Brewton, AL 

and N. C. and James Thames of Perdue Hill. While her removal is a sore 

bereavement, yet we should remember that she has “simply gone before” and “will 

be waiting and watching” to welcome her loved one as one by one they shall pass 

over the river to that bright world above.      R. D. I.
