The first was the two year and three months old daughter of Mr. G. H. Barrett, who lives near this place, and passed peacefully away August 20. All was done for the little sufferer that loving parents and friends could do yet she crossed the dark rive. She was a bright little girl and was loved by all. It is hard to part with those we love but the Heavenly Father knows best. We extend the bereaved parents and relatives our heartfelt sympathy. Also, on the 30th of August, Stewart, the five years and ten months old son of G., H. Barrett, passed peacefully away. He was a bright boy to be out so short in life. While he was not sick very long he suffered a great deal. All was done that parent and friends could do for the little sufferer, but he too has crossed the dark river to join his mother and two little sisters. Thank God for thy mother, love, Guard the priceless boon, For the bitter parting hour, Cometh all to soon. When thy grateful tenderness, Loses power to save, Earth will hold no dearer spot, Than our darling’s grave (A Friend) (Cedartown Standard, September 19, 1901) File at: http://files.usgwarchives.net/ga/polk/obits/gob1559barrett.txt This file has been created by a form at http://www.genrecords.org/gafiles/ File size: 1.8 Kb
