CRABB, ROSA, MRS. - Monday at the City cemetery, near the home of her birth and
girlhood, Rosa Withers Crabb was laid to rest. She was the daughter of G. D. &
Emma Withers. She belonged to the Christian Church and a member of the Rebekah
lodge. She was also a member of the Culture Club of this city and Standard Club
of Winnsboro. Rosa Withers entered the business world and succeeded beyond what
many stout men do. A Winnsboro young man wooed and won her, and last January C.
B. Crabb and Rosa Withers were married. She was sick only a short time; on
Sunday evening, a tiny little girl baby was born that never saw the light of
day, and in a few hours, the spirit of Rosa Crabb took its flight to God. Her
body was brought to this city for burial in the City cemetery. The business
houses of the city closed for the funeral. (S.S. Gazette, Fri., Dec. 4, 1908)
