Mrs. Lizzie Ramsey Dead
On April 13, about 2 A.M., the Death Angel visited the home of Mr. J. G.
Ramsey and took away his loving companion.  Kidney trouble seemed to be the
cause of her death.
Mrs. Ramsey was the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. W. M. Allen.  She was united in
marriage to Mr. J. G.
Ramsey about 43 years ago.  To this union was born 15 children:  Lola Rice,
Rebecca Cantrell, Dora Rice, Laura Faulkner, Mollie Davis, Victoria Rigsby,
Jeter, Ernie, Tennie, Allie, Robbie, Troy all of Marshall; Frank and Hubert
of Detroit, also 30 grandchildren.  Mrs. Ramsey also leaves a father, one
sister, Tina Ledford, two brother, Max and John Allen, of Whitney S. C., and
a host of friends.
She had been a member of Red Hill church for about 45 years, was faithful in
every good cause.  She was one among the best church workers that we have
ever had.  She was affectionately called the
"Shouting Lady."
She was laid to rest at the Station cemetery April 14, with Rev. Jake A.
Martin officiating.  He was assisted by Revs. R. S. Wodson, George Quinton,
B. E. Guthrie, Henry Ballard, Luther Hurdt, R. V. Self, J. C. Wallace and
Arthur Hensley.
Mrs. Ramsey will be greatly missed in church and in this community, but she
has left a great influence which will last through decades to come.
