Cairo Messenger, March 13, 1908
In Memory of Mrs. H. S. Jaynes
On the morning of August 26 the death angel visited our home and took from us 
our darling mother.

Mrs. Harriet Hollams Jaynes was born Aug. 4th 1830 and departed this life 
August 26th, 1907. She was a long and devoted member of the Baptist church.  
She loved her church for the cause it represented, whose purpose in life was to 
bestow deeds of charity upon the needy.  She was frequently found on errands of 
love and mercy.  A kind, affectionate wife, mother, sister, friend and 
neighbor.  None knew her but to love her, none named her but to praise, and the 
many stars that will bedeck her crown will be but an emblem of her purity and 
virtues in life.  She leaves a devoted husband and five children, Miss Fannie 
Jaynes, of Akridge, Ga., Mrs. W. M. Major of Cairo, Ga., Mrs. W. P. Collins of 
Cairo, Ga., Mrs. H. H. Cumby of Tallahassee, Fla., Mrs. B. L. Bodiford of 
Butler, Ga., besides a number of grand children and a host of friends who mourn 
their loss.  Truly a mother in Israel has fallen, ever to dwell in the Paradise 
of God.

The remains of our mother were interred in the cemetery of Pleasant Grove 
church Aug. 27th, surrounded by a large concourse of friends and loved ones.

While earth is poorer Heaven is richer in her death.
