The Robesonian Thurs 3/18/1915
Th 3/18/1915
Death of Mr. R. R. Carter.
 
Reported for The Robesonian:
 
   On the morning of March 10th the angel of death visited this beautiful green 
earth and took from us Brother R. R. Carter.  He had been sick several months, 
and death was not unexpected; but it was indeed a great shock to all his 
relatives and friends.
   Brother Carter was about 84 years of age and was loved by all who knew him.  
In his early manhood he made his confession and became a member of Back Swamp 
Baptist church.  Of that church he was a consistent member, until the 
organization of the First Baptist church of Pembroke, of which church he was on 
of the first charter members.  He remained a consistent member until his death.
   Deceased was survived by three sisters, four sons and four daughters.  The 
funeral services were conducted by the Rev. Mr. Prevatte, who had been a pastor 
for deceased for 17 years in succession, and was therefore well acquainted with 
deceased, and gave startling facts and good evidence of his Christian life.  The 
pastor had great confidence in the life of the deceased and therefore had grounds 
on which to, and did, preach a most wonderful sermon to the large audience who 
paid their due respect to the departed.  In this great human sorrow there sweetly 
comes one happy thought, that we will meet again, not in this vale of tears, but 
where no sadness ever comes.
          One Who Loved Him.
