Mrs. Rosser was a daughter of Mrs. Goodall and a sister of our townsman, Mr. John R. Sams. She was about forty years of age and leaves a husband and four noble children – all boys – to mourn her departure. The funeral sermon was preached at the Baptist church by Rev. J. M. Bowden to a large congregation. It was a beautiful discourse, so appropriate to the occasion, and one which must have given all who heard it a loftier conception of life ad its duties. Mrs. Rosser graduated t the Masonic Female College, Covington, in 1878. Here she met her husband and here they were happily married. Mr. Rosser moved from Covington to Monticello where he was engaged in business for some time, going from that place to Atlanta where he accepted a place as traveling salesman for A. M. Robinson. One of the sons, John, is a salesman for the same house, while another son, C. B. Rosser, Jr., is a book-keeper for the Beck Gregg Hardware co. The other two boys are in school and are regarded as most promising children. The deceased was a member of Jackson Hill Baptist church and was converted in 1878 under the preaching of Dr. J. W. Britain. She has lived a consistent Christian since and her life has abounded in noble works, the legitimate fruits of Christianity.
