Death of Mrs. Walker

Mrs. Augusta R. Walker, of Butler died at the home of her daughter in Atlanta 
last Tuesday where she had recently gone for a visit.

Mrs. Walker came to Butler in early life as the consort of Dr. John Walker and 
during her long pilgrimage here she won for herself a host of friends.

She was a woman of deep thought refined and cultured and kept up with the 
issues of the day.  She was also a bible student and while she had not attached 
herself to any branch of the Christian church, yet the well-worn pages of her 
Bible gave evidence of her faith in the Son of God and a blest immortality 
beyond the grave.  Her life was an exemplary one and for guilelessness and 
evenness of temper.  The average church member could well pattern after her.

Mrs. Walker was a resident of Butler for over forty years, she being 74 years 
old at the time of her death.  She is survived by her only sister, Mrs. Susan 
Harris Scandrett and by her only child, Mrs. Palmer S. Awtrey, and the 
following grandchildren: Rev. Hugh Snead Wallace, of Sweetwater, Tenn.; John L. 
Wallace, of New York; W.W. Wallace, of Atlanta; Miss Pearl Wallace and Miss 
Phillip Awtrey of Butler; besides a number of great grandchildren.

The funeral services were held Wednesday afternoon, conducted by Rev. Z.T. 
Weaver, of Reynolds.
