On Sunday last the writer and his good wife paid a visit to Mrs. R.H. Woods 
at Brooks Station. We found the venerable lady grieviously afflicted, both 
in body and mind, but cheerfuly resigned to the will of our heavenly father. 
She is now in her 80th year and patiently awaiting the summons that must 
come to us all sooner or later. She seemed to greatly enjoy a religious 
service held for her benefit.

Sept. 22nd

We were called to Brooks Station on Sunday to preach the funeral of Mrs. 
R.H. Woods, widow of the late Capt. R.H. Woods. The remains were carried to 
County Line church for interment and a large concourse of mourning friends 
attended the obsequies. The deceased was a daughter of the late Hillyer 
Brooks of Brooks Station. She was in her 80th year and had been a member of 
the Baptist church for upwards of sixty years. She leaves two sons, three 
sisters and one brother, the latter being Mrs. Frank Woods of Atlanta, Mrs. 
"Tip" Peeples and Mrs. Abe Steinheimer of Brooks Station and Mr. John Brooks 
of Nyson. Thus one of the best women of our acquaintance has passed over the 
river to join her loved ones on the other shore.
