clipping from unknown newspaper, 6 June 1957
     Mrs. Lula Wright Anderson passed away at Barnesville, Georgia on Thursday 
afternoon, May 16, 1957, and was buried May 18, 1957.
     The beautiful flowers bespoke a host of friends, and the impressive 
service gave evidence of a faithful Christian life and much beloved 
personality.
     Mrs. Anderson was the daughter of Dr. W. A. Wright and Mary Bandy 
Wright.  She was born August 10, 1873, and at death was approaching her eighty-
fourth birthday.
     She was a native of Barnesville, being one of eleven children, and the 
last of the family, except for one niece, one nephew, and one half niece.
     She was married to David Lawrence Anderson, November 21, 1891, and to 
that union was born three children, of whom only one survives, Mrs. Mary 
Anderson Ponder of Atlanta.
     To mourn her death there are also one grandson and two great 
granddaughters.
     So long and beautiful a life would have many attachments and lovely 
friends who sorrow at her passing.
     It is a comfort, however, to know that Mrs. Anderson's long life was 
filled with the good and the noble, the charitable and the loving.
     She joined the Methodist Church when a child, and served almost seventy-
five years in that communion, devoting herself faithfully to public and 
departmental services, and becoming one of the marvelously consecrated saints 
of the community.
     Mrs. Anderson, in her heroic life and noble Christian character, 
beautifully enriched our community, while the place she occupied must surely 
remain vacant, for the want of another of like mind and distinctive spirit.
     Kindred and friends alike, loved her and while tears must surely flow 
because of the bereavement, there must be comfort in the memory of her faith, 
the heroic nobleness of her life, and the loving graciousness of her nature.
     She has gone from us now, but thanks be to God for the gift of his Son 
and the riches of His grace, she is now with the saints in glory, no more to 
be ill, no more to suffer, but ever to rejoice in the love and fellowship of 
that holy company.
-E. Nash Broyles.
