The Teague Chronicle - 3 May 1918 edition

Sister M. M. Dunlap

M. M. Dunlap was born May 28, 1842 in Jefferson Co. Tenn., came to Texas in
August 1886, was married to J. W. Dunlap, and joined the church at an early
age. She united with the Cedar Creek Baptist Church March 1904. She was a
devoted member till God called her away yet it had not been her privilege to
attend the church very often in the last few years, she made her home at Dew
with her daughter, Mrs. Stagner. She was taken sick in her home and just lived
a few days. Everything that loving hands and medical aid could do was done to
no avail. Sister Dunlap departed this life March 6, 1918. She left to mourn for
her four children, a number of grandchildren and a host of friends. Grieve not
for she is not dead but just asleep with Jesus to awake in the resurrection
morn. There is a vacant place in the home and a vacant seat in the church that
can never be filled. Weep not children and friends, our, I insure is heavens
gain. We cannot call her back but let us all be prepared to meet her in that
sweet home where there will be no more parting. Resolved that a copy of this be
sent to the Teague Chronicle, a copy be spread on the church book, and a copy
be sent to the bereaved family.
