Obituary

Died, on Sunday, January 1st, 1888, at his residence, in ward one, at 12:20
o'clock p.m., Andrew Green, son of Joseph and Mrs. Nancy E. Smith, aged 31
years, 3 months, and 15 days.

Mr. Smith was born in this parish September 16th, 1859 and was married to Miss
Emma T. (Tennessee) Warner, December 18, 1879.  He was a consistent member of
the Winnfield Baptist Church, and a good citizen of this parish.  He was a
member of the Farmers Union, which organization held a procession over his
body at his burial at Jerusalem Church yard, Jan. 3rd, 1888.  He leaves a
heart stricken wife, two small girl children and a host of other relatives to
mourn his loss.  He was a faithful husband, a dutiful father, a kind neighbor
and a true friend.  As such, he was known in life, and as such we reverence
his memory.
