THE FUNERAL OF 
	MISS MORRIS 

Services at Oconee Street 
Church and Interment at 
Cherokee Corner

Yesterday morning at ten o’clock at Oconee Street Methodist church was held 
the funeral of Miss Harriet Morris, who passed away after a brief illness 
Tuesday morning.

Quite a number of sorrowing friends gathered at that hour to pay their tribute 
to the memory of the sweet young lady who had been called to her celestial 
home. 

The casket was borne to the chancel by the pallbearers, Messrs. G(?). E. 
Stone, J. H. Dorsey, J. Y. Dunaway, Vincent Matthews, C. F. Bailey and T. W. 
Reed, and the choir consisting of Mrs. H. E. Martin, Mrs. Alex Hargrove, Mrs. 
W. F. Betts, Miss Ida May Dorsey, Messrs. J. E. Gardner, J. H. Huggins, W. C. 
Weatherford and I. A. Bradberry, sang sweetly the opening hymn, “Bear me away 
on your snowy wings.” 

Prayer was offered by Rev. A. J. Sears,  pastor of Oconee Street church, which 
the Scripture lessons were read by Rev. Luke G. Johnson  and Rev. A. J. Sears. 

The choir sang “There is a Land of Pure Delight,” after which Mr. Johnson 
preached a most beautiful and appropriate sermon. 

After prayer by Mr. Johnson, the choir sang the closing hymn, “Lead Kindly 
Light,” and the casket was borne to the hearse by the pallbearers. 

The remains of Miss Morris were carried to Cherokee corner where they were 
interred in the presence of a large number of sorrowing friends.
