On Tuesday, May 5, Charlotte Barnwell, colored, wife of Nicholas Barnwell, Sr. died at the home of her niece near Waynesville, aged 70 years, and amid a large assembly of relatives and friends. All that is mortal was laid to rest by the side of her husband the following Thursday. The casket was freighted with beautiful flowers, contributed by friends, both white and colored, for all respected and loved “Aunt Charlotte.” For forty years she had been a dutiful member of the Baptist church, and her life was so upright and true we all feel she was fully prepared to meet her God. In her death not only her relatives, but the community at large has sustained a great loss. A nurse by profession, she spent the greater part of her useful life at the bedside of the sick, and there are countless numbers of both colors who have received her faithful services.—A FRIEND.
