Died

The many friends of Miss Sannie McKinny, who resided in Butler a few years ago, 
will be pained to learn of her death, which sad event occurred at San Antonio, 
Texas, where she had been spending a few weeks hoping to regain her wanted 
health, on Saturday, September 10th.  She was one of the sweetest and best 
young ladies that ever resided in our community, and this intelligence will 
carry sadness to many hearts.  A more extended notice will appear in our next 
issue.

A Sad Death

Death, grim death folded in his tender arms the fair and lovely form of Miss 
Sannie B. McKinney, and the angel with outstretched wings bore her shining soul 
to Heaven’s home sweet home, Sept. 10th.  Suffering for some time with lung 
trouble, she had been for several months at San Antonio, Texas, where beneath 
its warm, genial clime and sunny smiles loving hearts hoped her health would be 
permanently restored, but death stole softly to her and closed her eyelids 
calmly as to a night’s repose, like flowers at set of sun, and now death lies 
on her like an untimely frost, upon the sweetest flowers in all the field.  For 
several years she lived in our midst and was indeed a most noble and lovable 
character.  Her nature was full of sunshine and her heart melting in kindness 
won for her the friendship of all, for to know her was to love her, and many 
are the hearts bowed in deepest sorrow and grief at her early demise.

To the bereaved family and loved ones of our lamented friend, we tender our 
earnest and most heartfelt sympathies in this, their deep affliction and trust 
they may meet her sweet spirit in the Celestial City, where with her dear ones 
gone before she forms a glorious part of the angelic choir which surrounds the 
throne of God.

A Friend



Additional Comments:
Note: The last name is spelled differently in each article.  I've opted to use 
the spelling from the second article. I'm not a researcher of this family and 
don't know the correct spelling of the name.
