She had been sick for about ten days with acute intestinal obstruction, the intestine becoming twisted, consequently it became absolutely necessary to perform a surgical operation, which was done on Thursday evening by Drs HOLMES, DAVIS and SUTTON of Atlanta and Dr H V REYNOLDS of Marietta. The little sufferer rallied from the shock of the operation and there was slight hopes that she would get well, but Friday afternoon she began to sink, and about 7 o'clock that evening her pure sweet spirit went to dwell with the angels. She was a bright, beautiful child, of sweet loving disposition, and the only daughter of the devoted parents. She was seven years old last September. The funeral services were held Sunday morning at 11 o'clock at the family residence. Rev J H PATTON of the Presbyterian Church officiating. The interment was in the Episcopal cemetery. A profusion of beautiful flowers in several pretty designs banked the last resting place of little Sarah. She was a pupil of the first primary grade of the public schools and her teacher, Miss FOY, and the entire grade attended the funeral, each child carrying flowers as a token of love for their departed school companion, a very touching scene. The entire community deeply sympathize with the parents and two brothers in this sad and deplorable bereavement.
