Sedley Woman Dies At Banquet 

  Mrs. Margaret Corbitt Lowe, aged 45, of the Sedley community, died suddenly 
of a heart attack Thursday night while the Sedley Parent-Teacher Association, 
of which she was president, was serving a banquet to the Franklin Lions Club 
in the Friends meeting house in Sedley. 

  She apparently was in good health before the attack, which lasted but a few 
minutes. 

  She was wife of Luther A. Lowe of Sedley and daughter of Robert Lee and 
Nannie Rebecca Corbitt of Southampton County.  A member of Black Creek Baptist 
Church, she taught the L.L.L. Sunday School Class there for many years. 

  Surviving, besides her parents and husband, are one daughter, Mary Ellen 
Lowe, of Sedley; four sisters, Mrs. Annie May Drewry and Mrs. Birdie Carr, of 
Zuni; Mrs. Abbie Bridgers, of Norfolk; and Mrs. E.L. Reid, of Richmond; and 
six brothers, the Rev. William Henry Corbitt, of Apex, N.C.; the Rev. Rufus H. 
Corbitt, of Collosse; Robert Corbitt, of Pensacola, Fla.; Charles Corbitt, of 
Nashville, Tenn.; James Corbitt, of Newport News, and Gurley Corbitt, of Zuni.
