Mrs. Winnie Berry Hilton

  Last rites were held for Mrs. Winnie Berry Hilton, a well known
citizen of Sabine Parish, on Monday, Jan. 25, at 3 o'clock, at
the Mitchell Methodist Church, with interment at Oak Grove
Cemetery.

  Mrs. Hilton was born at Pinola, Miss., Simpson County, in 1887,
and in later years, was married to Luther W. Hilton, who preceded
her six years ago.

  Of this union, six children were born, of which five survive
her. She gave her life to Christ at an early age, and has lived a
Christian life ever since.

  She was a devoted wife and mother to all. She could say I have
fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the
faith.

  Surviving children are Mrs. Clara Matthews, Berry Hilton, Harold
Hilton, Mrs. Julia Henderson, and Mrs. Elizabeth Jacobs.
