Died

Our community was saddened last Sunday at the announcement of the death of Mrs. 
R.R. Howard, which occurred at her home early Sunday morning the 12th inst.  
Mrs. Howard was one of our best known and most loved women; she was a life long 
member of the Methodist church, a consistent Christian, a loving mother and a 
devoted wife.  She was in feeble health for more than a year, but her death was 
very sudden and unexpected.  To her grief stricken companion of forty-three 
years, was offer our heartfelt sympathy; to her loving children we would 
say: “that mother is not dead, but sleepeth,” and in the trials of life her 
good example will shine brighter and in the happy meeting beyond the river of 
pain will be forgotten.  After the service at the Methodist church, Monday 
evening, conducted by Rev. J.T. Mims, a large number of sorrowing friends and 
relatives accompanied her remains to their last resting place in the new 
cemetery north of the railroad. – Reynolds Hustler

Reynolds, Ga., Nov. 20th 1893
By L.A.B.

On Sunday morning last the 12th inst., Mrs. Robert Howard died.  She was about 
sixty years of age.  A lady of refinement, a consistent member of the M.E. 
Church with her membership at Reynolds.  In an impressive manner her funeral 
was preached by Rev. J.T. Mims.  There were present a large concourse of 
sorrowing friends.  After services she was followed to the ceremony by the 
congregation and her body laid to rest.  We left her grave beautifully 
decorated with choice flowers emblematic of her pure life just closed.  The 
sympathy of the entire community goes out to the bereaved family.
