SHEWMAKER
	On the morning of September 13, death visited the home of Mrs. George 
Shewmaker and took from it the oldest daughter, Cora. She was born February 7, 
1877. She was loved by all who knew her, for she was a very lovable character, 
being kind and devoted in her home and an earnest, faithful Christian. She 
united with the church when young and had so lived that when the time came to 
leave this world of sorrow she had nothing to fear. In the evening of the same 
day the angel of death came to this home again and took the son, Waggener. 
Typhoid had laid its hold on him first, but he lived several hours after his 
sister’s death. He lacked but a few days of being nineteen years of age-was 
one of the brightest boys in the community. Possessed as he was of a kind, 
cheerful disposition, he made friends wherever he went. The home, the church, 
the entire community, has sustained a great loss. We are so sad without them, 
but we have the hope of meeting again where there will be no parting.
