H MEMORIKM ? ??"""^ On the evening of July 9th. 1918, the death Angel 'again visited the home of Mrs. Aurelia Bazemore, *nd took therefrom her daughter, Loma D. Bazemore, after a linger ing illness of several months. She was converted and joined Bethelehem Baptist church, when a child and ever remained a faithful member, till healtn failed. She was a great sufferer for some time but bore it without a murmer, having committed herself completely into the Lord'4 hands and whose servant site devotedly remained till the summons came for Iter translation. Her last hours were beautiful, and calm, as' Heaven drew near. She left no doubt in the end that she would enter heavens door gloriously To the loved ones the loss is great and seems more than they could bear, as this is the third time in six months the home has been bereft of a loved one, and while the the home is Completely shrouded in gloom over it hangs God'a rainbow of promise "I'll never leave thee nor forsake the". The transition from earth to Heaven leaves the family in tears,' but how joyful to know she is nspre mely happy surrounded by loved ones and tieholding the King in his beauty, and basking: in the sunshine of His presence. No purer charac ter ever lived than Loma, she has left a legacy to sisters and brothers that is to be coveted, not in wealth as the world would call it, but a life worthy of imitation. She was pa tient, kind anri always considerate of the welfare of others, and we know ber spirit was wafted above in tranquil quiet and glow of a summer evening. * Just a few day* before she passed away, there was such a sad exper ience in the nome when ber brother bade her farewell, when he left for Camp, knowing he could never see her again in this world, but may he and his family surrender their will to Him who will keep their loved one safe until the?family now brok en on earth, shall'be mide whole in his glorified presence, never to sorrow or say goodbye. On July 10th. the funeral services were conducted at the home, by Rev Underwood of Murfreesboro in a very impressive manner, after which the body was laid to rest in the family cemetary by the side of loved ones, to await the resurrec tion morn. We extend our deepest sympathy to the loved one Jeft behind and commend them to our Heavenly Father who doeth all things for the best. No parting word* are ever spoken In that Heavenly home ao fair, For all ia joy, peace and glhdnesa Where their loved one in Over there. B. MONEY TO LOAN. Five, Seven and Ten years time.
