Being requested, I shall write a short obituary of Grandma Bell and Mrs.

IN MEMORIAM OF MRS. ELIZABETH KELLEY

Died on the night of the 13th inst. (Feb 13), at the residence of her son-in-
law Mr. H. B. Dyer, Mrs. Elizabeth Kelley. 

Grandma Kelley was born in Greenville district, South Carolina in the year of 
our Lord, 1800. She was the daughter of Thomas and Elizabeth Dyer. She was 
married to Moses Kelley in 1818 and emigrated to Georgia sometime after she 
was married. She first settled in Walton county, this state, and from there to 
Coweta, and from there to Carroll,where she resided till her death. 

She was a consistent member of the Missionary Baptist church. She united to 
that church at Macedonia, Coweta county in 1846. I think I can safely say that 
she was a Christian. We are taught in the good book that "by their fruits ye 
shall know them" and all her neighbors will join in saying that her walk was 
upright and that she had the fruits of the spirit.

She leaves three children to mourn her departure and numerous grandchildren. 
Her children are Capt. T. M. Kelley, Mrs. H. B. Dyer and Mrs. John D. Morgan. 
May their lives be like hers. A.B. Fitts
