BYRL BARRETT 

  Sorrow and distress reign in many homes in this section.  The weather is 
unusually cool for the time of year and frost comes every night, yet sickness 
and death are frequent.  Diphtheria, typhoid fever and meningitis, are some 
of the causes of distress.  Diphtheria and fever have been most prevalent in 
Dendron, but well controlled.

  October the 4th, little Byrl Barrett son of Bro. Hugh Barrett of Dendron, 
died of meningitis.  The little spirit is gone to his Maker to await the 
arrival of father and mother.  The boy was entered in the old plantation 
cemetery.
