                          OBITUARY of:
                   Miss Charlie E. Williams
  
                         February 1903
                            +++++++

                            Williams

God, in His unerring providence, on February 16, 1903, took from our midst 
in a tornado that wrecked and sunk the steamer Olive in the Chowan River, 
Miss Charlie E.Williams, while in the bloom of womanhood, aged 29. Our
community in the death of Miss Williams, loses a sweet spirited and cheerful 
young lady.  

Christian Harbor church loses a worthy member and the Sunday-school a good 
worker, the mother an obedient daughter; the father his joy; the brother a 
loving and kind sister; all the companions (and they were many) a loving 
friend.  

We cheerfully commend her spirit to Him who is too wise to err. And pray that 
we may be able to join hands with Charlie in the sweet bye and bye. And we 

Resolve 1.  To humbly submit to the dispensation of God's providence and 
commend His ruling to the father, mother and brother, to the church she so 
dearly loved, to the Sunday-school she so faithfully served.

2. That we send a copy of this tribute to the bereaved family, with our 
condolence, to the Biblical Recorder for publication, and spread this record 
upon our minutes.


WILLIE D. EVANS,
MAMMIE A MILER,
G. E. HOLLOMON,
