Death of Mrs. D.S. Saunders

Truly death loves a shining mark.  When the death angel entered the home of Mr.
D.S. Saunders about 1:30 o’clock Thursday afternoon last and bore the spirit of
his devoted  companion, Mrs. Emma Long Saunders, age 45 years, to its heavenly
home, the sad intelligence of her demise cast a shadow of grief over every heart
in Reynolds and vicinity.

Having been a resident of Reynolds since her marriage to Mr. Saunders nineteen
years ago, she was known and loved by both old and young.  She possessed a sunny
disposition and her inimitable hospitality was graciously dispensed to one and all.

Mrs. Saunders was a lovable Christian woman, unassuming, yet making the world
better for having lived.  She had been an exemplary member of the Methodist
church since childhood.  She was a sincere loyal friend, a good neighbor, loving
wife and as a step-mother many testify that she could not be excelled in her
devotion and care of those who honored and loved her as mother.

Mrs. Saunders has been in declining health for more than a year and although the
best physicians were consulted she grew gradually worse until, in answer to her
prayer, death came to relieve her.  Surrounded by her loved ones she quietly
fell asleep to await the resurrection morn.

Funeral services and interment took place Friday at New Hope cemetery, the
services being conducted by Revs. J.H. Stanford and J.H. Allen

Mr. Saunders Thanks Friends

Mr. Saunders, the greatly bereaved husband, requests that his sincerest
appreciation be extended to his neighbors and many friends for their many acts
of kindness and loving sympathy to himself and family during the illness of his
wife.
