IN MEMORIAM OF MRS. P.J. BULLOCK

On Wednesday, Dec. 30, 1908, from an attack of pneumonia, the spirit of Mrs. 
P.J. Bullock took its flight from her home in Madras, back to the God who 
gave it. She was born in Gwinnett county, Ga., on April 23, 1843 and at the 
time of her death was aged 65 years and 8 months. She had been a member of 
the Methodist church at Jones Chapel for sixteen years. The funeral services 
were held at Jones Chapel on Dec. 31, 1908 being conducted by her pastor, 
Rev. A.E. Sansburn and her body was laid to rest there. She leaves only one 
daughter Mrs. J.T Ferrell and three grandchildren to mourn her loss.

She joined the Methodist church when in young womanhood. Her life was spent 
in service to God and to her family, neighbors and friends. No task was too 
difficult for her if by its performance she could help someone else. She 
lived for others and never seemed to think of self. In character she was 
like the good Samaritan, always ready to do the neighborly act and never 
shrank from a duty. Modest and unassuming she lived according to the 
injunction of Paul who said, "be kindly affectioned one to another with 
brotherly love". Sister Bullock was a devoted mother and a good neighbor, 
loved and highly appreciated by the people among whom she lived.

She suffered much for three weeks, but quietly and patiently, trusting 
wholly in the Lord. Her neighbors and friends were attentive to the last.

As it has seemed good to Almighty God, the allwise ruler of the universe, to 
remove from our midst our beloved and faithful sister Mrs. P.J. Bullock, in 
this great loss, we as neighbors have sustained, and the greater loss to her 
beloved daughter, we desire to express our deep sympathy for them in their 
bereavement and grief in the loss of so faithful and beloved a mother, and 
commend them for consolation to our Heavenly Father, "who doeth all things 
well." S.C.M., Madras, Ga., Jan. 9th
