The Saint Paris News-Dispatch November 14, 1918
The Angel whose name is Death, whose work is forever calling; while the sun was 
setting in all its beauty, transforming the blue of heaven into a bright, 
golden horizon, called from a home one of heaven's jewels whose name is Viola.
Viola Mabel APPLEGETT, youngest daughter of Charles and Mary Applegett, was 
born May 17, 1896 and departed this life November 7, 1918, age 22 years, 5 mo's 
and 20 days. 
Besides a heart stricken mother and father, she leaves 2 sisters, Lillie and 
Hazel, 2 brothers, George and Walter, and a host of relatives and friends to 
mourn their loss. 
She was converted at the age of 16 with a number of other young people (of whom 
the writer was one)under the preaching of Rev. GRIFFETH and the Holy Spirit. 
She united with the Honey Creek Baptist Church to which she remained a faithful 
and active member until death. 
She bore her few days of agonizing pain and misery, without complaint, under 
the watchful care of her bereft father and mother. Knowing that she was at the 
end of a short race, that her brief course was finished, and that she had kept 
the Faith received at the Cross, she welcomed death. 
The funeral services were conducted at the home Saturday, November 9 at 2 pm by 
Rev. N.Y. MATHEWS of St Paris. Interment was made at the Honey Creek cemetery.
by Rev. Samuel Furrow
