O. Adams, living near Mansfield, died early Tuesday morning with acute indigestion. She had been sick only a short time. Mrs. Adams was one of the noblest women in the county. She was full of sunshine and unselfishness. She had many rare traits of character. She was a devoted mother, wife neighbor and Christian, having been a member of the Primitive Baptist Church at Harris Spring for many years. She was a daughter of Mr. and Mrs. George Davis, of Rutledge, and a niece of our worthy citizen, Mr. W. B. Hurst. Mrs. Adams was 34 years old, and the mother of six bright industrious children. No mother was more devoted to her children and her home than was this good woman. She will be missed not only by her own bereaved family and relatives, but by the whole community in which she lived. God’s purpose in taking away so young and so good and so useful a woman is hid from human sight. Only our trust and faith in Him makes us to bear without complaining so keen a sorrow. Her burial took place at the Adams cemetery near Dixie, in the presence of a large crowd of sorrowing friends, the funeral being conducted by Eld. J. T. Jordan, of Stone Mountain, and Eld. R. L. Cook, of Social Circle. Our deepest sympathy goes out to the heartbroken husband and children. May this dark cloud soon be _____ by the loving smiles of our _______ Father. A Friend.
