CARTER, SARAH ELIZABETH
(1 Dec 1911, Friday, The Carter Express, Carter, Beckham Co, OK):
OBITUARY - Mrs. W. G. Carter died at her home two miles East of Carter
last Friday morning at six o'clock, after a spell of Rheumatism and
complications.  She was confined to bed only a few days before the death
angel called her home but had suffered with Rheumatism for several months
prior to her death.  Bettie Scott was born in Lawrence county, Tennessee,
in 1845; was married to W. G. Carter in Cook county, Texas in 1880.  To
this happy union were born six children, three of whom died in infancy,
the other three, J. D., William and Eugene, residing with them on their
farm East of Carter.  Mrs. W. G. Carter was a member in good standing of
the Baptist church, and had been a consistant (sic) member of said church
for the past thirty years.  Her friends were numbered by her
acquaintances.  The Express joins the many friends of Mr. W. G. Carter,
his sons J. D., William and Eugene, in offering said bereft, sincere
sympathy and condolence in this their dark hour of trouble and
afflictions.  Its only a question of time when everyone must cross Jordans
chilly waters of death, and pass to that great beyond, from whose born no
traveler has ever returned.
