Remains of Little Girl Interred Here Friday

Grandchild of Capt. and Mrs. T.C. Butler Formerly of this Place

Another home has been robbed of a beautiful baby life.  Katharine Royal, age 
one year, daughter of Prof. James M. and Katie Butler Royal, died at the home 
of her parents and grandparents at Dooling, Ga., Thursday morning last after a 
brief illness from pneumonia.

This tiny blossom of humanity has been drooping from physical infirmities for 
several months and was not able to withstand the attack of disease that came 
upon it and like the April-kissed flower withered and died.  Around its little 
life had been thrown all the parental affection to which we are subject, as 
well as the very best care, but this could not beguile it from drooping.

The lifeless little form of Katharine was brought from Dooling to Butler by 
automobile Friday morning and laid to rest by hands of those who deeply 
sympathized with the bereaved ones.  Rev. J.T. Adams conducted the funeral 
service at the grave and spoke words of tenderest sympathy and comfort.  The 
music at the grave was sweet and beautiful, the choir singing several 
appropriate selections.

Accompanying the remains to Butler were: Mr. and Mrs. Royal, Mrs. T.C. Butler 
and Mr. J.F. Plexico.  For voluntary services and abundant kindnesses rendered 
by the latter he has the thanks of loved ones and friends.

Card of Thanks

We wish to thank our friends in Butler for the sympathy and kindness extended 
us in our bereavement.  Mere words of thanks seem to pale into insignificance 
before such sympathetic friendship as was shown to us by Mr. and Mrs. C.E. 
Benns and Mrs. W.N. Benns during our brief sad stay in their homes.

Sincerely,
Mr. and Mrs. J.M. Royal
Mrs. T.C. Butler
