A Good Mother Gone

all present at the burial.  Her children are as follows: Messrs. Joe M. and B.F. 
Brown and Mrs. G.W. Teague, Mrs. Joe Yow and Mrs. Orlendo Yow, of this community 
and Mrs. James Marley and Miss Ellen Brown of Siler City, and Mr. W.L. Brown, of

One of her missions being to visit the sick and look after the poor.
