Tupelo Journal, April 7, 1922
	MRS. R. L. DICKERSON
	-------
  On Monday morning, March 28, 1922, the Great Reaper—Death—came into the home 
of R. L. Dickerson and took away his beloved wife, after a lingering illness.
  Mrs. Dickinson has the dreadful disease, tuberculosis.  Her health had been 
declining for the past year and the last few months of her life she was 
confined to her bed.  She suffered untold misery, but bore it without a 
murmur.  When death came she went without a struggle.
  Mrs. Dickerson was a member of the Christian church from early girlhood.  She 
was a devoted mother, a good friend and neighbor.  She left a husband, seven 
children, a father, other relatives and friends to mourn her loss.
  We want to say to the bereaved, that although there is a vacancy in your home 
that can never be filled, your loss is heaven’s gain.  You should be more 
determined to live a Christian life so you can meet her some sweet day.  Put 
your trust in God and go to Him for comfort.
  The remains were laid to rest in Mullen’s cemetery at Nettleton.  Bro. 
Collins of Shannon conducted the funeral services.  The floral offerings were 
beautiful.
  A friend.
