"A TRIBUTE TO MRS. MARTHA McCOY TRAVIS. 

The sad death of our departed friend occurred at the Maplewood Infirmary April 
4th, after an illness of flu and pneumonia. She bore her suffering with 
patience. So sweet and kind to all.

She was buried in the Refuge Cemetery. Bro. Reno conducting the funeral 
services. The nice floral offering was a token of her many friends.

Mrs. Travis was 37 years, 11 months, and 15 days old. She made of profession of 
religion in a revival held at Lick Branch in the year 1904, joined the church 
of that place and was baptized. That she remained true to this profession is 
proved by her daily walk in life, and by her sweet patience during her last 
hours of suffering. We are made to wonder why she was called home so soon, when 
her precious little children needed her loving care so much. But we cannot 
question the divine wisdom of God. Perhaps it is to lead the way for loving 
companion and children to follow on after her. So we would say to the bereaved 
companion and children to think of her as a "Guiding Star," or a "Beacon 
Light", pointing the way for you to follow in the path she has trod, and you 
will meet that sweet mother and loving companion around the great white throne 
of God. We wish to add further that you have our tenderest sympathy. While we 
have never lost a companion we lost our mother in early youth. We know it is 
sad, but can only breathe a silent prayer to the one who has promised to take 
the place of loved ones. To throw the loving arm of protection around us. 
Signed: Her Girlhood Friend."
