A. Neal, age 52 years and 16 days. He was born in Winn parish July 29th, 1854, and lived in Winn parish all of his life. He was married to Miss Mattie Watson of Claiborne parish in 1873. He leaves a devoted wife and six children — four girls and two boys — a mother, three brothers, and two sisters and a host of other relatives to mourn his death. But we know our loss is his gain. He has been afflicted for a long time, and for the past five years has been a constant sufferer, but praise the Lord, the battle is fought and the victory is won. We cannot meet him any more in this life, but praise God, we can meet him in heaven. How precious is the death of the saint in the sight of the Lord! Oh! how sweet are the promises of our Savior. When we have to stand and see our loved ones depart this life and to know there is a place of rest for the children of God, and if we live Godly we can meet beyond the grave, where parting will be no more. Grieve not, loved ones, as those that have no hope, but live to meet him in heaven, where there will be no more sad goodbys; where the suffering cease from anguish, and the weary are at rest, sweet rest. His sister, CLARA. File at: http://files.usgwarchives.net/la/winn/obits/n/neal2949nob.txt This file has been created by a form at http://www.genrecords.net/lafiles/ File size: 1.9 Kb
