Miss Celia Parks of Emerson is the charming guest of Misses Thompson at Belmont
farm.

DIED - Last Tuesday night as the hands of the clock indicated the hour of
midnight, the immortal spirit of Thomas C Lawlor winged its flight to the realms
of Eternal bliss.  Mr Lawlor had been sick for eight or ten weeks with a malady
which baffled the skill of the physicians, and which finally claimed him for a
victim, notwithstanding everything was done by loving hands to stay the ravages
of the disease.  Mr Lawlor leaves a wife, two daughters and one son, and a host
of friends to mourn his loss.  Rev C T A Pise conducted the funeral services,
and the remains were laid to rest in the cemetery at this place by the Odd
Fellows.  Mr Lawlor having been a member of Nickajack Lodge No. 89, I O O F, and
the first member buried by that lodge in over 14 years.  He sleeps the sleep
that knows no waking.  "Peace to his ashes."

Mrs W T Pace and little daughter, Helen, visited relatives in Woodstock last week. 


The Ladies Aid Society of the Methodist Church added a neat little sum to their
treasury by serving hot lunches on election day.

Mr Virgil Fleming is in town shaking hands with his many friends.  It is rumored
that Virgil makes this visit to Smyrna for the purpose of taking unto himself a
wife.

Mrs T C Lawlor requests me to extend her sincere thanks to the people of this
community, and especially to the Odd Fellows, for the attention and kindness
shown herself and family during the recent illness and death of her husband.

DIED - Last Saturday morning the immortal spirit of Mrs F B Lester winged its
flight to the great white throne of the God who gave it.  Mrs Lester had been
sick many months, but it was only recently that her condition became alarming
and no skill of the physicians could stay the hand of death which terminated her
suffering Saturday morning.  Mrs Lester leaves a husband, five children, several
brothers and sisters and a large number of friends to mourn her demise.  The
funeral services were conducted from the Methodist Church by Rev Mr McCoy and
Rev Mr Morgan on Sunday.  Interment in Smyrna cemetery.

Rev Mr Morgan filled his appointment at the Baptist Church last Saturday and
Sunday.
