Death Claims Miss Perkins

Funeral conducted by Christian Scientists, and interment will be at Farill
Monday morning at 5 o'clock the spirit of Miss Maggie Perkins took its flight 
back to the Creator. The end was as tranquil and peaceful as the sparkling 
waters in the still stream. Without a moan or gasp she gave up submissively the 
life that had bee hers for so many years.
Miss Perkins had been ill for two months with heart failure and dropsy. And as 
she was so faithfully ministered to by her loving friends, she was always 
patient and gentle and kind. When the news of her death was heard over the 
city, it was very seldom that one was found who had not known her, and to know 
her was to admire her goodwill, kind deeds and cheery presence.
The services were conducted by the Christian Scientists Monday afternoon at 5 
o'clock at the home of her niece, Mrs. D.E. Lowry, on Fifth Avenue. The remains 
will be carried to Farill, Ala., this morning and the interment will take place 
there today at the Salem Methodidt cemetery.
She leaves to mourn her loss two sisters, Mrs. Abernathy, of Rome, and Mrs. 
W.D. Hoyt, of Farrill.
Mrs. D.E. Lowry and Mrs. Charlie Berry are her nieces.
A large concourse of friends extend to these loved ones their sympathy in this 
hour of sorrow and gloom.
