West Carroll Gazette-Oak Grove, La. July 9, 1915
  Died at the home of her grandmother, Mrs. S.E. Briggs, on Friday at 7:30 
p.m., Lucille, the three year old daughtr of Mr. and Mrs. J.F. Williams.
  A brief funeral service was held at the Briggs home Saturday afternoon at 
3:30 o'clock, conducted by Rev. C.D. Purcell, pastor of the Methodist Church.  
Many of the relatives and friends of the sorrowing family were present and as 
they looked upon the sweet, placid little body in its white casket, and 
surrounded by beautiful and fragrant flowers yet not more beautiful or pure 
than the little face with their hearts swelled in sympathy for the breaved 
family. But let us not think of little Lucille as dead but as living; not as a 
flower that has withered, but as one that has been transplanted and touched by 
a Divine hand, is blooming richer color and sweeter fragrance than those on 
earth.
  "There is no death.  The stars go down
   To rise upon some fairest shore
   And be right in Heavens Jewell crown
   They shine forever more.
