ANNIE MAY ROSE

   Miss Annie May Rose, youngest daughter of Mrs. Rebecca Rose and the late 
W.H. Rose of this town, died at the St. Regis Hospital, Salem, Va., early 
Monday morning, December 13.  Her mother had been advised by telegram that her 
condition was serious and was hastening to her daughter's bedside reaching 
Salem severral hours after her death.  The body was brought to Franklin by 
Mrs. Rose and her son, Mr. Livy Rose of Norfolk, Tuesday, the funeral being 
held Wednesday afternoon at 2 o'clock.

   Miss Rose was a young woman of many admirable qualities, and the bereaved 
family has the universal sympathy of our townspeople in the untimely death of 
this splendid young woman in her twenty-seventh year.  She was possessed of a 
charming and genial personality and was quite a favorite with the young people 
of the town and community.  She had been a member of the Baptist church since 
early childhood, and was an active worker in the Young Woman's Auxiliary, the 
junior missionary organization of her church, acting as its secretary and 
treasurer for some time until failing health had interfered with her regular 
attendance.

   She is survived by her widowed mother, Mrs. Rebecca Rose; four brothers, 
Fred M., Livy and Robert H. of Norfolk and C. Ryland Rose of this town; by one 
sister, Miss Lily Rose of Franklin, and a wide circle of relative and many 
warm, personal friends.

   The funeral services were held from the Franklin Baptist Church by Rev. 
M.A. MacLean, pastor of the deceased, in the presence of a large concourse of 
sorrowing friends.  Interment followed in Poplar Spring Cemetery, the active 
pallbearers being: J. Powell Eley, Gardner T. Edwards, J. Edgar Weede, Linwood 
Moore, Leland Fleetwood, W.T. Pace, Jr.
