As Anzora Walthall she was born seventy-four years ago, and to her union with Mr. Brooks twelve children were born, ten of whom survive, Messrs. J.C. and M. E. Brooks of Cedartown, W. H. Brooks of Montgomery, Ala., Rufus E. Brooks of Ft. McPherson, and Aleck Brooks of Chattanooga; Mrs. J. L. Wyatt of Chattanooga, Mrs. J.G. Turner of Columbus, Mrs. P.E. Green of Panama City, Fla., Mrs. M. O’Hara, who was kept away by illness, were at her beside. There are eighteen grandchildren and eight great-grandchildren. A devoted wife and mother, an excellent friend and neighbor, it could well be said of her as of Dorcas of old, "She hath done what she could," and her memory will long be cherished. Funeral services were conducted Friday afternoon at the residence by her pastor, Rev. J.D. Larkins, of the First Baptist church, followed by interment in the city cemetery.
