Obituary of Harriett Arabelle Mappin


Harriett Arabelle Mappin died at her home in Martinsville after a
short illness.  While she had been ailing for a couple of years, only
a few close friends knew of it till she was stricken with paralysis,
after which she never spoke.

Harriett Arabelle, daughter of James and Elizabeth Phillips, was born
April 16, 1852 and departed this life March 4, 1926, aged 73 years, 10
months and 18 days. 

October 13, 1878 she was united in marriage to Jenning Mappin, who
survives her.  To this union were born three children, Harry, who
preceded her to the great beyond Aug 3, 1923.  Mrs. Lillie Jones of
Martinsville and Mrs. Ida Lobban of Manchester, NH.  Her only sister,
Missouri Murphy, preceded her just one year ago.  She leaves 2
brothers, Tom Phillips of Marshall, and Wm. Phillips of Stockton,
Calif.

She united with the church of Christ, Sept. 30, 1917 and was baptized
the same hour of the night by B. O. Hall, and has lived a faithful
member ever since.  She loved the church and always attended when
health permitted.
 
Mrs. Mappin was a devoted wife, an affectionate mother and a good
neighbor, who was ready at all times to help in sickness or need.  She
will be sadly missed by the whole community and her many relatives and
friends.

Blessed are the death which die in the Lord.

Funeral services were held at the Church of Christ in Martinsville,
Saturday, March 6, conducted by J. A. Sweet of Marshall.
