White, daughter of Bro. J. F. and Sister Mary A. White, was born in Clark county, Arkansas, September 26, 1874. She was a sweet-spirited and affectionate little girl. She embraced her Savior one or two months before she went home to live with him. She was a great sufferer only for a few days of her sickness. She breathed her life out sweetly in the arms of Jesus July 7, 1882, near Garden Valley, Smith county, Texas. Dear parents and heart-grieved sisters and brother, you weep, but not as those having no hope. Little Mattie is gone, but not forever. May the Lord bless the bereaved family. —J. F. Henderson.
