illness of several months.  She was born in Hertford County, N.C., a daughter 
of the late John and Mrs. Agnes Pond Britt, but she had resided in Franklin 
for the past 50 years.

   Mrs. Norfleet was a loyal, faithful member of High Street Methodist Church,

   Burial was in Poplar Spring Cemetery, the pallbearers being Joseph Fowler, 
Sam Powell, J.J. Magee, Jr., Bruce Rose, Merritt Jordan, J.J. Magee, Sr.,
