B. and Mary Scott, died at his home at Tyler, Texas. He came and brightened the home for four years and then went away. He was always delighted to attend Church and Sunday-school. He was of an inquiring disposition, loved to talk about God and heaven. This he did as he neared death. He asked his mamma many questions about being good and going to heaven. He was baptized at the age of ten months by his now sainted grandfather, Rev. Patrick Scott. Sam and Mary, don't weep for Freddie. He is waiting at heaven's gate for you. Former pastor, W. M. LANE
