Norfolk Landmark September 9, 1899

GREGORY - At the residence of its parents, No. 407 East Brambleton Avenue, 
Friday, September 8th,at 3:25 p.m., RUTH ELIZABETH, infant daughter of William 
B. and Irene M. Gregory, aged 8 months and 4 days.
The funeral will be held from the above residence THIS (Saturday) MORNING at 
10:30 o'clock. Friends of the family are invited to attend.

As the sweet flowers that scents the morn
  But withers in the rising day,
Thus lovely was this infant's dawn
  Thus swiftly fled its life away.

It died to sin, it died to care, 
  But for a moment felt its rod; 
Oh, mourner, such the Lord declares, 
  Such are the children of our God.
