MRS. MARGARET PATE
Native of Jackson Co, died in McAlester, OK. News has reached here of 
the death of MRS. MARGARET PATE, which occurred at her home in McAlester, 
OK, Saturday afternoon Jan 17th, at three o'clock following a shore 
illness. Mrs. Pate was formerly of this county, having lived and reared 
a large family on a farm about two miles north of Flynn's Lick, in the 
11th district of the county. She was the widow of DON PATE who preceded 
her to the grave about 18 years ago. She was a splendid Christian woman,
and numbered her friends by her acquaintances. Some twenty two years ago,
she moved to Oklahoma to reside, but like most people, she always had
a warm place in her heart for her old home place, and during these twenty 
odd years she made many visits back home. She was never happier than when 
she met with her old friends and acquaintances and had a long chat about 
the days gone by.  She is survived by four sons, ALBERT PATE of Cookeville,
TN, EDWARD PATE of Gainesboro, TN, Rt 4; LEE S PATE of Murfreesboro, TN; 
and WALTER PATE of Milton, OK; four daughters, MRS. LIZZIE BURGESS,
MRS. EVIE SPEAKMAN, of McAlester, OK, MRS. SAM JACKSON, Ada, OK, and 
MRS. VIOLA KIRKPATRICK, Ft Worth, TX.  She is also survived by twenty
grandchildren and scores of relatives and friends.  Following religious
services the remains were laid to rest beside her husband in the McAlester 
Cemetery.  Those of her children present were, MRS. BURGESS, MRS. SPEAKMAN,
MRS. KIRKPATRICK and WALTER and LEE PATE.
