BERTHA HENDERSON FELTS

COMMUNICATED

   Bertha Henderson Felts, little daughter of Mr. and Mrs. C.B. Felts of 
Roanoke Rapids, N.C. died at the home of her parents Friday, June 21, after 
several weeks illness. The body was brought to Boykins Saturday and interred in 
the family cemetery on Mr. B. E. Felts farm, funeral services being conducted 
by Rev. H.P. Dalton of the Boykins Baptist Church. 

   She was in her eighth year and the family will miss this little flower but 
God needed her in his kingdom. While mother, father, sisters and brothers will 
miss her and are grieved so sorely, yet we seem to hear them say, 

"Shine on little star and shed your light, 'Twill help us on our way; 
 The night will soon be over dear; And then the endless day. - A COUSIN
