KENT - NORSWORTHY. - Mrs. Rebecca Kent and Mrs. Kittie E. Norsworthy - mother 
and daughter - departed this life at their home, two miles south of Jasper, 
Texas, the former, October 16; the latter, September 20, 1897. Just twenty-seven 
days between the death of the daughter and the mother. They both died of slow 
fever. She was first married to Adams H. Snell March 17, 1874, and was again 
married to Z. E. Kent December 16, 1883, with whom she was living when she 
departed this life. She had for thirteen years lived a consistent Christian 
life, during which time she was a member of the M. E. Church, South. She said 
but little about dying before she died, but she died as she lived. She leaves 
behind ger several children and a host of friends to mourn their loss.

Mrs. Norsworthy was born february 7, 1881. She was sixteen years, seven months 
and thirteen days old when she died. She was married the 3d of February , 1897, 
and had scarcely begun her happy relation when death called a separation. She 
made no profession of religion till a few days before she died, but died in the 
triumphs of a living faith.

The mother and daughter have gone ahead and have joined hands on the other side 
to await the coming of loved ones who are left behind. May God direct the 
footsteps of the two bereaved husbands and the sons and daughters and brothers 
and sisters in such a way that they may all meet their loved ones who have gone 
on to the other side. - J. T. McCLURE.
