Barker On Jan. 21st about 2 o'clock P.M. the death angel came and bore away the sweet spirit of Mrs. Annie Laura Barker to give her a heavenly home. Her intense suffering of four days was borne with patience and fortitude. At the time of her death, she was only 27 years, 9 months and 12 days old. While this useful life is ended on earth, still she lives in the hearts of those who knew her. The funeral services were conducted at the Omega Baptist Church by Rev. D.J.

She leaves a father, mother, a number of brothers and sisters, a grief stricken husband, three children and a host of relatives and friends to mourn her untimely departure. Mr. and Mrs. P.C.
