In Memoriam

Mrs. Inez Blythe died at her home in Junction City on the morning of Aug. 21, 
1910 at 7 o’clock with typhoid fever.  She was 27 years old – married W.A. 
Blythe in 1904 and six years they walked together in life’s pathway.  God 
blessed the union with one little boy Beland, five years of age who we pray 
will be a star in her crown.  Mrs. Blythe was a member of M.E. Church South 
and never was there a nobler, purer and kinder hearted woman ever lived; and 
it was always her pleasure administering to the wants of others and many acts 
of kindness has she bestowed on the sick.  She will be sadly missed in her 
homestead and vicinity as there are few such women who live.  It may be truly 
said of her “none knew her but to love her.”

She attracted and held her friends by her loving ways and all who came within 
the charming circle of her acquaintances were drawn to her by the sweetness of 
her disposition and hospitality; as the doors to her home were always open and 
it was her greatest pleasure and enjoyment to have her friends with her.  But 
alas, “God moves in a mysterious way.”  Her taking off was not a shock as she 
had been confined to her bed seven weeks.  

She went to sleep to awake in a fairer clime where winter lingers not, where 
the flowers ever bloom, where sweet fountains distill cadence like a sweet 
dream and where the soft footfalls of guardian angels attend and love her as 
she wanders among new delights and basks in the sunshine of their affection.  
She now enjoys that bliss and joy that awaits all who are good and true.  She 
has gone to join her beloved mother who preceded her 17 days before. 

Mrs. Blythe was the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. C.D. McLendon and was born and 
reared near Box Springs.  Besides her father, heart-broken husband and little 
boy, she is survived by two sisters Mrs. Tom Meriwether of Pikeroad, Ala. and 
Miss Annera McLendon of Box Springs, two brothers, Mr. C.R. McLendon of 
Columbus, Ga. and Mr. W.F. McLendon of Lakeland, Fla.
