A Mother In Israel Dies

On Wednesday night at 10 o'clock Death, which always seeks a shining mark,
entered the home of our old friend, J. W. Wasson, and took from the home its most
precious jewel, the wife and mother.  She was sick for a few days only when
erysipelas set in, and though her condition was critical hopes for her recovery
were entertained until just before her death.  She was a sister of Mrs. D. M.
Pyburn and Mrs. B. H. Talbot of Dodson, both of whom, together with other
relatives of this section, have been with her since it was first known that her
condition was serious.

The body was shipped to Dodson on the morning train, accompanied by a number of
the relatives and friends of the deceased, most of whom proceeded to Gansville,
where burial took place yesterday afternoon.  the deceased lady was about 40
years old and leaves a large family of children, a husband and a host of
relatives and friends to mourn her untimely death.  She was a member of the
Baptist Church, and withal a most estimable character, whom to know was to
admire.  The Comrade extends sympathy to the bereaved.
