Death of Mrs. John Harris

In the death of Mrs. Harris, which occurred at her home Thursday the 6th, 
inst., after several weeks illness, the community has sustained a sad loss, 
although her days were numbered, she having passed her three score and ten 
years.  She was a devout member of the Baptist church and her many virtues, of 
piety, charity, simability and ever ready assistance to suffering humanity will 
be rewarded by the diadem that crowns the angelic host of paradise.

Mrs. Harris approached the grave with unfaltering trust, and while shadows 
darken the home, rendering it lonely and desolate to the tear-filled eyes of 
the bereaved husband and children.  They must remember she is at rest and they 
can ever cherish the fond memory of a sainted wife and mother.

The deceased was the wife of Rev. John Harris, her children are: Mr. Dixie 
Harris, Mrs. O.V. Fuller, of Abbeville, Mrs. John Robertson, Mrs. Ernest 
Fuller, Miss Lila Harris, Miss Lucia Harris, Miss Annie Harris.

Harris

On Thursday Aug. 6, 1903, the soul of our beloved sister, Emily Harris, wife of 
Rev. J.A. Harris, went to its home with God.  She was of lovely Christian 
character in her home life, in the community, in the church; she adored the 
profession she made of the religion of Christ.

Therefore be it resolved first that we extend our brother and family our 
sympathy and point them to the Lamb of God, the Christian friend.

Second, that these resolutions be spread upon our minutes, a copy furnished the 
family, and that a copy be sent the Index, and the Talbotton New Era for 
publication.

Respectively submitted,
A.J. Webster
Mrs. M. Cunningham
Mrs. A.J. Webster
