The Cairo Messenger, Friday, January 2, 1914
The Passing Away Of A Good Woman
While it is ever a sad occurrence for the Angel of Death to enter the home and 
take some loved one, it was sad indeed when on last Tuesday morning at 6 
o'clock, Mrs. America Donaldson, consort of Mr. A. J. Donaldson, died at their 
home six miles east of Cairo.  She had been a great sufferer for a year and for 
the past three weeks, critically ill.

At the time of her death she had entered her 80th year of her age being 79 on 
the 4th of October last.  She had for years been a consistent and devout member 
of the Bold Spring Methodist church and ever lived the life of a Christian 
woman.

The funeral was held at Bold Spring church last Wednesday morning at 11 o'clock 
and was conducted by Presiding Elder J. M. Outler, of Thomasville, assisted by 
Rev. R. F. Owen of Ochlocknee.  The burial in the Bold Spring cemetery followed 
afterwards, surrounded by a large number of mourning relatives and friends.

To the aged husband, the prayers and sympathies of a large circle of friends go 
out.  Especially at his age, to be left alone, seems a terrible affliction, and 
that Great Healer, who ever tempers the wind to the shorn lamb, will heal the 
bruised heart and make sweet the bitter of the cup which seems to overflow for 
this good old gentleman.
