Mrs. Jennie Simmons

Friday evening, August 13th, a silent messenger came and conducted the spirit 
of Mrs. Jennie Simmons to that Better Land.

She was stricken with paralysis and lingered three weeks.  All that devoted 
ones could do was of no avail.  She was born and reared in Augusta, Ga.  Her 
maiden name was Butler.  She married Mr. Asbury Smith of this county.  He was 
killed during the war.  After many years, she was united in marriage to Mr. 
James Simmons, who preceded her to the Heavenly Home years ago.  Mrs. Simmons 
was a consistent member of Collinsworth Church, where she was laid to rest on 
Saturday in the presence of many sorrowing friends.  Revs. J.T. Ansley and J.G. 
Harrison, her pastor, peformed the last sad rites.

The beautiful floral tributes betokened the esteem and love in which she was 
held.  Her loving, loyal daughters, Mesdames Smith and Daniel were at her 
bedside when the summons came.

M.A.W.

A Card of Thanks

We extend our sincere thanks to the physician, minister and kind-hearted 
friends for the kindness which they manifested in so many ways during the 
illness and death of our dear mother and grandmother, Mrs. Jennie Simmons.

Although our hearts are sore with grief we feel and realize what a blessing it 
is to have kind friends and we are confident that friendship was never shown 
when it was more needed or appreciated than during this period of sickness.  We 
can only offer them our deepest thanks but God will reward them in Heaven for 
their works on earth.

Her Daughters,
Alma Smith
Jennie Daniel
