The Schley County News  Friday, August 5, 1910
IN MEMORIAM
Death has again visited us and has left it mark and desolation by removing our 
dearly beloved grand-mother, Mrs. Masy (Mary) Hill.  Grandma was in her 83 
year and had been a life long member of the Methodist church of Concord.  
Through all these many years of sorrows, disappointments and cares, incident 
to our lives in this world, her confidence grew stronger and her hope in 
heaven grew brighter and brighter.  Although her sufferings were very great 
since January, she was never heard to complain and was always submissive to 
Gods will in sickness as well as in health.  May the loved ones left behind so 
live that when our days are ended here we may meet her on that happy shore to 
live with her forever where sickness and sorrows, heart aches and 
disappointments come no more but where we shall dwell in love, joy and peace 
forever.  Her remains were brought from the home of her daughter, Mrs. Emma 
Hammonds of Butler to Concord, and after a very impressive ceremony by Rev. 
C.D. Carter, she was laid to rest by the side of her husband who preceded her 
only a few short years.

By a grandaughter.

Additional Comments:
As a Hill researcher, this obit is particularly puzzling.  Mary Elizabeth 
Joiner Hill, wife of Lewis Hill builder and early owner of Hill's Mill in 
Concord, is buried at Concord Methodist church next to her husband.  Her stone 
in that cemetery shows a date of death of 14 June 1909, yet this obituary 
which does not give a date of death appeared in the August 5, 1910 issue of 
the Schley County News which suggests the date on the marker could be as much 
as a year or more off.
