**Same issue
From Newborn
     Mrs. J. E. Pitts one of the oldest and best members of our church, passed 
away Saturday morning, Feb. 3rd, at her home near Newborn. Although she had 
been sick some time, her death was unexpected and cast a gloom over the whole 
community. Indeed, how could it have been otherwise? One among us, so gentle 
and loving as “ Aunt Mellie” cannot fail to be missed. Mrs. Pitts was good and 
faithful in various relations of life; a good wife, kind and affectionate 
mother, and a blessing to the community in which she lived. God only knows how 
we miss her loving counsels. She leaves a husband and two children to mourn her 
departure. Her remains were interred Saturday afternoon in the Newborn 
Cemetery, and were followed to their last resting place by a large concourse of 
sympathizing friends and relatives. The funeral services were conducted, by 
Revs. J. J. Ansley and James Harwell.
A FRIEND
