J. Barham, died at 7:30 p.m., Saturday, on her sixty-first birthday, following a cerebral hemorrhage suffered at 3:00 p.m. She was seemingly in her usual state of health, having attended a funeral at 1:00 p.m., and was engaged in Christmas shopping at the time she was stricken. The daughter of the late Eld. E. W. Walker, Primitive Baptist minister, she was reared in the Mulberry community and was a member of the Buckeye Primitive Baptist Church for many years. Her Godly life and Christian influence will live on in the hearts of those who knew her. Though of an unassuming nature, she went about doing good. Her presence will be greatly missed at Mt. Olivet Church, where she was a regular attendant and was so faithful in her contributions, both of her services and means. She was endeared to a wide circle of friends at Petersburg, where she had resided all of her married life, and was active in civic affairs. Funeral services were held at the Petersburg Cumberland Presbyterian Church with Eld. W. A. Pinkstaff in charge, assisted by Rev. D. B. Smith. Burial was in Old Orchard Cemetery by her husband and son, who preceded her in death several years. Surviving her is an only son, Aubrey Barham, of Nashville, a stepson, Quint Barham, of Petersburg, two step-grandsons, Paul Barham, of Petersburg, Frank Barham, of the U. S. Navy, a sister, Miss Ina Walker, of Mulberry, and brothers, J. M. Walker, of Mulberry, and Eb Walker, of Chattanooga.
