In Memoriam

“The scythe of time hath reaped the ripened grain for the heavenly garner.”

Thus we thought when the sad news reached us on January 22nd, 1907, (paper 
torn) only uncle, L.C. Chambless had passed away.  A useful life of 86 years 
has ended and we rejoice to know so much that it was spent in the Master’s 
service.

“Whom the Lord loveth he chasteneth” and surely “Uncle Lit” was one of the 
Lord’s beloved, for only one of a large family of children was he permitted to 
rear, and 24 years ago his companion was taken after long years of suffering.  
How well do we remember what untiring devotion he (paper torn) to the slightest 
wants of that invalid wife and after God had released her from her suffering 
and he had placed her beside his other dead in the cemetery in Buena Vista, he 
went to DeFuniak Springs, Fla. where he as since resided with his only child.

For a number of years he was a member of the Baptist church in Buena Vista and 
was a consecrated Christian.

We will ever cherish the memory of that dear old uncle whose life was so worthy 
of imitation.

A Niece
