August 16, 1915 Died Died, at the home of her grandmother, Mrs. S.R. Briggs, on Friday at 7:30 p.m., Lucille, the three year old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. J.F. Williams. A brief funeral was held at the Briggs home Saturday afternoon at 3:30 o'clock, conducted by Rev. G.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 within-- their hearts swelled in sympathy for the bereaved 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 fairer shore; And bright in Heaven's jeweled crown They shine forever more."
