Laid to Rest 

Funeral of Mrs. Frierson Yesterday Afternoon 

Sunday morning about three o’clock Mrs. S.H. Frierson breathed her last at her 
home on Milledge Avenue in this city.

Her recent illness extended over several weeks, during which time she aged 
sufferer uncomplainingly bore her affliction, until Sunday morning when the 
master welcomed her, beyond the starts with “well done, good and faithful 
servant enter into the joys of thy Lord.” 

The funeral exercises occurred yesterday afternoon at the Methodist  church, 
and quite a large number of friends and acquaintances of the deceased were 
present.  As a token of respect, the University exercises were suspended after 
one o’clock.  

The exercises were conducted by Rev. T. R. Kendall and Rev. J. C. Davis, and 
the choir, consisting of Miss Maggie Morton and Mrs. C. M. Snelling and Messrs. 
C. M. Strahan and J. H. Hull sang most sweetly. 

Rev. T. R. Kendall delivered a few remarks upon the life of the deceased which 
indeed was a beautiful one.  For over sixty years a devout and consistent 
member of the First Methodist church, during all of which time her every moment 
was characterized by Christian charity and gentleness. 

She was the oldest member of the Methodist church and one of the oldest 
citizens of Athens. 

In the quietude of the city of the dead, the mortal remains of this mother in 
Israel were consigned to their last resting place, and around the fireside in 
many homes there hangs a pall of sorrow.
