Miss Hattie Rawls Passes To Her Reward

The many friends of Miss Hattie Rawls throughout the county will be grieved to 
learn of her death which occurred at her home six miles east of town at ten 
o'clock last Thursday morning.  Miss Rawls had been ill for nearly a year with 
pellagra, which was the cause of her death.  She had been confined to her bed 
for nearly six months, yet hope was never give up for her recovery, everything 
being done to relieve her suffering, she having undergone treatment in an 
Atlanta Sanitarium.  She was well known and was loved by everyone who knew her, 
having been a trained nurse, during the past several years and nursed many sick 
people in all sections of the country.

Miss Rawls was a consistent member of the Pearce Chapel Methodist Church.  The 
funeral services were held at Pearce Chapel church at eleven o'clock last 
Saturday morning, the remains being laid to rest in the cemetery nearby.  Rev. 
H. P. Stubbs, her pastor, conducted the last sad rites of this good woman.  A 
large concourse of sorrowing relatives and friends attended the last sad rites.

Miss Rawls, had she lived, would have been 42 years of age on the 27th of this 
month.  She is survived by her father and mother, Mr. and Mrs. W. T. Rawls and 
five sisters, besides numerous relatives and friends.
