The funeral services for the late Mrs. Sarah McCbrdy Snyder, widow of the late Rev. J. W. Snyder, were held at the First Baptist Church on (Sunday afternoon, March 13th, at 2:30 o’clock, and the interment was made in OakAvood cemetery. At the home on East Depot street, and at the church, a large concourse of relatives and friends gathered in sorrowful sympathy for the bereft, and in loving remembrance of the de parted. But, the sorrow felt at Mrs. Sny ders departure, and the thought that we should see her gentle smile in this life no more, was relieved by the thought of fier happy release from long waiting and pain. The wonderful floral tributes added evidence of the love and esteem in which Mr. Snyder was held, while beautifully typical of her spirit, weighted with a fragrance never to be forgotten, by those who were so fortunate as to have come under the influence of her kindly life. At the church the Rev. Drs. L. R. Pruette, of Charlotte, and S. N. Wat ► son. of Bladenboro, a former pastor, paid beautiful tributes to the memo ries of Rev.- J. W. Snyder, who only two weeks preyiously, had preceded hm life-mate, and to the loving wife and mother, who was following on. ' Two years ago a loving daughter, Miss Annie, was tragically taken from this home, where the bonds of love l bound together the family as one. , At the church the hymns “I Would Not Live Always,” “It is Well With ■ My Soul,” and “When I Go Home.” , were beautifully rendered by the church choir together with those from ; other church, choirs, carrying .to the hearts of all, tender thoughts and sen timents. At the grave the Rev. C. Herman Trueblood conducted the burial ser vice. The War Mothers drapped a United States Flag upon the beauti ful blanket of white carnations and lilies, covering the casket, and then fil ing by, each dropped a single white carnation in loving remembrance of Mrs. Snyder's gift to the world war. As the casket, with its jewel, and the mementoes of love were lowered to its final resting place, to await its re qufc-kening on the resurrection morn, a quartet sang “Goodnight,” in melting tones, as a loving farewell to a spot less life. \ “Peace —Blessed Peace!” The active pall bearers were: A. E. Harris, Tho*. Baruhardt, Gus Boger, of Albemarle, Reece I. Long, W. E. Swinson, J. W. B. Long. Honorary pall bearers were: D. B. Morrison and J. E. Smoot. >.
